Explanation:

No, she won't meet her daily fiber recommendation. For two servings of each snack, Brianna would consume 6 grams of fiber. 6 grams out of 28 recommended grams is about 21.4 percent of her intake. 60% of 28 grams is about 16.8 grams (0.60 * 28), so she's consumed a total of 22.8 grams. She still needs to consume about 5.2 grams to meet the recommended amount of fiber.
