How is the amount of grams of Nitrogen from Protein calculated?

Protein intake (g) / 6.25

The amount of grams of Nitrogen from Protein is calculated by taking the protein intake in grams and dividing it by 6.25. This is because every gram of protein contains about 16% nitrogen, and this conversion factor of 6.25 is used to convert from grams of protein to grams of nitrogen. Choosing options B, C, or D would result in incorrect calculations as they do not take into account the conversion factor.
