A dietitian is planning a meal of chicken, rice, and peas for a patient. The patient needs the meal to contain 123.5 grams of carbohydrate, 54.4 grams of protein and 7.8 grams of fat. The table below shows the number of grams of carbohydrate, protein, and fat in 100 grams of each food. (Note, the total is not 100 grams due to the water and fiber content of the food.) How much of each food should be used so that the patient gets the needed nutrients?
Carbohydrate | Protein | Fat | |
Chicken | 0 | 32 | 4 |
Rice | 25 | 2 | 0 |
Peas | 12 | 3 | 1 |
