The simple answer: There would be 135 calories in a serving of chicken.
Explanation:
Since there are 4 calories in a gram, you multiply the gram by 4 to get that amount of calories. The same concept applies to 27g. All you do is multiply 27 by 4 which gives you 108. Therefore, 27g of protein would have 108 calories.
Next, you multiply 3g of fat by 9, because there are 9 calories in a gram of fat. Thus, 3g of fat would have 27 calories. (3 x 9)
Finally, you just add 27 and 108, which equals to 135.
