How much carbs should I consume (Im cutting)

Is it true 40 percent of total calorie intake would be best option?

Im aiming for 3000 calories (I bulked on 3200) so I will start to cut on 3000 and decrease by 200 every week or so.

So how many grams of carbs I can take?
If its 40 percent of 3000 calories thats 1200 right?

All that matters is protein grams and total calories, doesnt matter if extra calories come from carbs or fats

Try and make the most of meals if cutting, high fiber, lean meats, more food volume
