Answer 1

To clarify the relationship between Calories and kilocalories (kcal):

1 kcal (kilocalorie) is equivalent to 1,000 calories. In dietary terms, "Calorie" (with an uppercase C) typically refers to kilocalories.

Thus, 41 Calories (41 kcal) is equal to 41,000 calories. On the other hand, 410 kcal is equal to 410,000 calories.

When comparing 41 Calories (41 kcal) to 410 kcal:

• 41 Calories is much less than 410 kcal.

So the correct response is:

41 Calories is less than 410 kcal.
