Undergoing moderate activity, an average person will

Undergoing moderate activity, an average person will generate about 350 kJ of heat per hour. Using the heat of combustion of palmitic acid (ΔH= -9977.6 kJ/mol) as an approximate value for fatty substances, estimate how many grams of fat would be required per day to sustain this level, if all were burned for heat.
