To find the maximum number of fat grams Max can eat, we first need to find out what 30% of his daily calories is:

2400 x 0.30 = 720

This means that Max can have a maximum of 720 calories from fat in a day.

Since 1 gram of fat contains 9 calories, we can then divide 720 by 9 to get the maximum number of fat grams:

720 / 9 = 80

Therefore, the maximum number of fat grams Max can eat in a day is 80.
