Answer:475 gm

Explanation:

Given

Ratio of Calorie to protein is
$190:6\quad [in\ gm]$

For a packet containing
$15\ gm$ of proteins the amount of calorie is
$x\ gm$ (say)

For a packet ratio remains same so,

$\Rightarrow (190)/(6)=(x)/(15)$

$\Rightarrow x=15* (190)/(6)$

$\Rightarrow x=475\ gm$

Therefore, packet contains
$475\ gm$ of calorie.
