First of 30% of 2500kcal is 750kcal
if a male consumes 2.5 kcal then 750kcal / 2.5kcal = 300
but then we would need to know how many wheat are on one hectare of land.

Answer:109.5 Kg

Step-by-step explanation:

Given

Given 30 % of intake is from wheat

Therefore an US male consumes 0.3(2500)=750 kcal per day

and For 1 year it is 750\times 365 =273750 kcal per year

and wheat contains 2.5 kcal per gram

therefore =\frac{273750}{2.5}=109.5 kg of wheat is required For an US male.
