the label on a loaf of bread says it has 1.4g of fat in a 38g slice. The label on a packet of bread rolls says each 55g roll has 2.1g of fat. which has the higher proportion of fat?

1 answer

To determine which has the higher proportion of fat, we need to compare the fat content per gram of each item.

1. For the loaf of bread:
Fat content per gram = 1.4g fat / 38g slice ≈ 0.0368g/g

2. For the bread rolls:
Fat content per gram = 2.1g fat / 55g roll ≈ 0.0382g/g

Comparing the two proportions, the bread rolls have a slightly higher proportion of fat per gram compared to the loaf of bread.
