One gram of a certain health food contains 7 percent of the minimum daily requirement of vitamin E and 3 percent of the minimum daily requirement of vitamin A. If vitamins E and A are to be obtained from no other source, approximately how many grams of the health food must be eaten daily to provide at least the minimum daily requirement of both vitamins?
A. 3
B. 7
C. 10
D. 14
E. 33
OA is E
Following is my doubt:-
How many grams of the food must be eaten daily to provide at least the minimum daily requirement of both vitamins?
It is interpreted as how many grams of the food must be eaten to provide at least 100% of A and E.
I understood the above part, which i wasn't sure at first but now it is clear to me. However, if the question asked about maximum daily requirement of both vitamins, then in that case should i have focused on Vitamin E instead of A ?
I don't know if it is an appropriate question to ask, but i will really appreciate if someone clears my doubt.
Thank you.
