This is only half of the picture!
In glycolysis only two ATP's are produced because when glucose is converted to Glucose 6-phosphate, hexokinase requires ATP (first step). On the third step of glycolysis when fructose 6-phosphate gets converted by phosphofructokinase(PFK) into fructo 1,6-biphosphate it als requires ATP. As of now you have used 2 ATP molecules.
after the splitting into glyceraldehyde 3- phosphate you start producing ATP when you convert 1,3-biphosphoglycerate into 3- phosphoglycerate, for a total of 2 ATP ( because you have two molecules of 1,3 biphophoglycerate). You also gain 2 more ATP's on the final step converting phosphoenolpyruvate into pyruvate (because you have 2 molecules of Phosphenolpyruvate)
In summation, you use 2 molecule but you gain 4 molecules which means thay you ultimately have 2 ATP at the end of glycolysis.(2-4=2)
but if you keep looking glycolysis produces 2 NADH (for the electron transport chain) and 2 pyruvate molecules for Krebs cycle.
The transition step makes 2 NADH when converting pyruvate into Acetyl-Coenzyme A.
Also, it produces 2 NADH from the conversion of D-isocitrate into alpha- ketogluterate and again from alpha-ketogluterate into succinyl-Coenzyme A.
and finally when convertin Malate into Ox aloacetate. for a total of 6 NADH
Also 2 GTP's are produced by the conversion of succinyl-Coenzyme A into succinate.
finally, you also produce 2 FADH molecules.
Now all the FADH and NADH go to the ETC
This is where the brunt of the energy is made.
Each FADH molecule produces 2 ATP and each NADH produces 3 ATP... this added witht the glycolysis ATP equals 36 ATP produced by a single molecule of Glucose. (10NADH(3ATP) +2 FADH(2ATP)+ 2 ATP)
2 ATP molecules are used to split glucose. During the process, glucose is split into 2 G3P or glyceraldehyde-3-phosphate molecules.
One molecule of glucose will produce 38 molecules of ATP. This means that 300/38 molecules of glucose are needed, or 8, which will make 304 ATP molecules.

Each glucose molecule contains 6 carbon atoms. Thus we need 18 molecules of CO2 to make 3 molecules of glucose.
There are 2 FAD and NAD and molecules. This is to breakdown each glucose molecule.
It takes 2 monosaccharide molecules to form a maltose molecule. Those are 2 glucose molecules. So 2 glucose molecules join together to make 1 maltose molecule.
One molecule of glucose will produce 38 molecules of ATP. This means that 300/38 molecules of glucose are needed, or 8, which will make 304 ATP molecules.
