Well your BMR (amount of calories to stay at your current weight) is approximately 2400 calories. If you eat more than that, you gain weight, eat less than that and you lose weight. To add muscle at an efficient rate you should eat 500-1000 calories more than your BMR, so you should be eating 2900-3400 calories.
