- First, we need to calculate the total number of calories from the macronutrients: 
    - Carbohydrates: 250 grams x 4 calories/gram = 1000 calories 
    - Protein: 75 grams x 4 calories/gram = 300 calories 
    - Fat: 60 grams x 9 calories/gram = 540 calories 
- Then, we need to calculate the percentage of calories that came from fat:
    - (540 calories / (1000 calories + 300 calories + 540 calories)) x 100% = 29% 
Therefore, the answer is C.

Yesterday Nadia Consumed 250 Grams of Carbohydrate, 75 Grams of Protein
