n=4c+4p+9f
n equals 4 c plus 4 p plus 9 f
n=17cpf
n equals 17 c p f
n=4c+9p+4f
n equals 4 c plus 9 p plus 4 f
n=9c+4p+4f
n equals 9 c plus 4 p plus 4 f
The correct equation that relates the number of calories (n) with the number of grams of carbohydrates (c), protein (p), and fat (f) is:
n = 4c + 4p + 9f
