    40 calories

    Explanation:

    If we take average calorie per gram of protein and carbohydrate as 4 calories/gram.

    Then, Calories from 4 g of protein = 4g * 4calories/g = 16 calories

    Similarly, calories due to 6 g of carbs = 6 g * 4colries/g = 24 calories

    Therefore, total calories = 16+24 = 40 calories
