Total energy required = 10^{4}\; \text{kJ}

Energy obtained from 1 mole of Glucose = 2700\; \text{kJ}

\therefore 2700 kJ is obtained from 180 g Glucose.

\therefore 10^{4}\; \text{kJ} will be obtained from  \frac{180}{2700} \times 10^{4}

                                                   = 667 \; g

Hence, the correct answer is 667.
