D Correct answer
Explanation

A balanced diet for an adult working man requires approximately 600 grams of carbohydrate-rich foods and 70-100 grams of protein foods daily. Option D correctly reflects this ratio with 600 gm of carbohydrates and 420 gm of protein foods. The other options either reverse the ratio or suggest equal amounts, which doesn't align with nutritional requirements where carbohydrates should provide the bulk of calories.
