Energy calculation

As homework we had to calculate the energy of a meal. For my example I choose a "Choco Petite Beurre au lait".

1075 kJ = 0.298611111 kWh

From Joule to kWh

I decided to calculate the energy of cottage cheese. It’s a small meal I really like to eat for lunch at school.

100g of cottage cheese has 88kcal.

Calculation:

1 kcal = 0.001163 kWh

88 x 0.001163 = 0.102344 kWh

 

To calculate the result I used the numbers from this homepage.
