Recommended
Humans need iron for proper blood development, particularly the hemoglobin, which carries the oxygen. Different physiology requires different amounts of intake, but somewhere between 8 and 18 milligrams is recommended. However, if the majority of the iron intake is not from meat, this needs to be almost doubled, as iron found in plants and breads isn't processed as easily as iron from meat.
The RDA is the Recommended Dietary Allowance for people's eating habits. The amount of RNA in water varies, depending on the solution.
First you would have to concert the 176 lbs to kgs so you divide by 2.2 so you get 80kg then the adult rda is 0.8g/kg/day so you multiply the 80 by 0.8 and you get 64 as the RDA.
Different nutrients have different recommended daily allowances.

Yes. A potato, with skin, with a mass of 173 grams of iron, contains about 10% of the RDA. Removing the skin, which reduces the mass to 153 grams of iron, causes all but 3% of the RDA to be lost.
Chicken Liver 72% RDA per 100g (which is 3.527 ozs). FWIW - duck liver provides more iron.
Yes. Vegetarians have an RDA for iron 1.8 times that for non-vegetarians. Specifically, vegetarian women 19-50 years old need 32mg/day compared to the 18mg/day RDA for non-vegetarian women of the same age range.
McDonald's fries only supply about 6% of the RDA of iron, but some frozen french fries only supply 2% to 4% of the RDA. This equals between 0.25 and 0.5 milligrams per serving. Most of the iron in potato products is lost if the peel is removed.
About .000 800g/240ml 800 micrograms per cup. About 4% your RDA.
One may be surprised to find that there is 2,000% of the daily recommended value of vitamin C, 100% of the daily recommended value of Calcium, and 90% of the daily recommended value of vitamin A in any type of orange peel.
