    Option C.

    Step-by-step explanation:

    Jace's daily calories consumption is restricted to = 1900 calories

    He has consumed today = 1,500 calories

    and also burned off calorie at gym = 400 calories

    Now he have left to consume for the day = 1900 - (1500-400)

    = 1900 - 1100

    = 800 calories

    Over 800 calories will cause him to exceed 1,900 calories.

    Therefore, Option C: NO, 1,100 will cause him to exceed 1,900.

    C

    Step-by-step explanation:

    Consumed = 1500

    Burned = 400

    Calorie Count total = 1500 - 400 = 1100

    His target is 1900, so he will need 1900 - 1100 = 800 calories to consume more

    So, 1100 is NOT a viable solution because he will go over 1900 if that happens. Hence, C is the correct choice.
