1. Determine the number of repetitions of the ẞ-oxidation spiral needed to completely degrade the fatty acid to acetyl-SCOA (acetyl-CoA). 2. Calculate the ATP produced by the acetyl-SCOA molecules in the citric acid cycle. 3. Calculate the ATP produced from the FADH2 and NADH produced from ẞ-oxidation. 4. Add the ATP generated (from step 2 and 3), and subtract the
