In reality your actually percentages may be different that what is in any website or book but in general it is usually 40 carb/30 protein/30 fat on a general average (from my past classes however someone recently said it is more 60/20/20).
However this is also from a class I took:
CALCULATING HOW MUCH FAT, CARBOHYDRATES AND PROTIEN YOU NEED IN A DAY MADE EASY!
Calculating how much fat, carbohydrates and protein you need in a day made easy once you know what to do. Based on a 2,000 calorie diet (substitute the amount of calories you intake a day – 1 point is approximately 50-60 calories without fat or fiber figured into the equation) containing 30 percent fat, 30 percent protein and 40 percent carbohydrates, here what to do:
FATS: Multiply 2,000 by .30 = 600 (the number of total fat calories). Divide 600 by 9 (number of calories in 1 gram of fat) = 67 total fat grams allowed.
PROTIEN: Multiply 2,000 by .30 = 600 (the number of total protein calories). Divide 600 by 4 = 150 total protein grams allowed.
CARBOHYDRATES: Multiply 2,000 by .40 = 800 (the number of total carbohydrate calories). Divide 800 by 4 = 200 total carbohydrate grams allowed.
Based on the point range 20-27 (approximately 1200-1620 calories) and using 30 percent fat, 30 percent protein and 40 percent carbohydrates, here’s what to do:
FATS: 1200 x .30 = 360/9 = 40 total fat grams allowed TO 1620 x .30 = 486/9 = 54 total grams allowed
PROTIENS: 1200 x .30 = 360/4 = 90 total protein grams allowed TO 1620 x .30 = 486/4 = 122 total protein grams allowed
CARBOHYDRATES: 1200 x .40 = 480/4 = 120 total carbohydrate grams allowed TO 1620 x .40 = 648/4 = 162 total carbohydrate grams allowed
Maybe it will help you.
