Question
a partial table of nutrients and daily values (dvs) based on a 2000 - calorie diet is provided. the sodium row and the vitamin d row are completed, and each % of the dv is calculated. compare each amount with the amount on the given nutrition label. now use the amount of added sugars on the nutrition label to calculate its % of dv, z. use the added sugars amount on the nutrition label to calculate the %dv for added sugars.
nutrient dv
sodium 2300mg
vitamin d 20mcg
added sugars 54g
%dv
80mg ≈ 0.0348 ≈ 3%
2300mg
0mcg = 0 = 0%
20mcg
z = %
(round to the nearest whole percent as needed.)
the percent column on the label shows the percent daily values based on a 2000 - calorie diet.

*the % daily value (dv) tells you how much of a nutrient in a serving of food contributes to a daily diet. 2,000 calories a day is used for general nutrition advice.
Step1: Recall the formula for %DV
The formula for percent - Daily Value (%DV) is $\%DV=\frac{\text{Amount of nutrient in serving}}{\text{Daily Value of nutrient}}\times100$.
Step2: Identify values for added sugars
The amount of added sugars in the serving is $54$g. The Daily - Value (DV) for added sugars is not given in the problem - statement, but for a 2000 - calorie diet, the recommended limit for added sugars is 50g.
Step3: Calculate %DV for added sugars
Substitute the values into the formula: $\%DV=\frac{54}{50}\times100 = 108\%$.
