I agree with your answer to 1 but not two. My cereal box says total fat should not exceed 60 g for 2000 calorie/day diet. That makes your answer look skimpy to me. Note; A gram of fat is about 9 calories; you can work out the percent from that..
So the answer would be A. I got 3%..
I am still a little confused. You said the answer looked skimpy. That makes it sound like the percentage was too low.
I just took the quiz. The answer to number 2 was 7-10%.
The correct answer is D.

To explain further about the cereal box in my pantry, 60 g fat at 9 calories/grams is 540 calories.
540 calories on a 2000 calorie/day diet is (540/2000)*100 = about 27%. D is the closest to that.
