No, while the difference represents the absolute magnitude of two numbers . . . for example . . .

The difference between 5 and 2 is . . . 3

3. Formulate 900 lbs of a 35% CP ration using Soybean Meal (46% CP) and Oats (12% CP). How many pounds of soybean meal will be u
Anarel [89]

Answer:

The amount of Soyabean = 608.82 pounds.

The amount of Oats  = 900-608.82 = 291.18 pounds.

Step-by-step explanation:

Given that the Soybean Meal has 46% CP and Oats has 12% CP.

The total amount of ration is 900 lbs of 35% CP.

Let x pounds of Soyabean has been used, so,

the amount of Oats = 900-x lbs.

The CP amount in 900 lbs mixture will be equal to the sum of CP amounts in x lbs Soyabean and 900-x lbs Oats, i.e

35% of 900 = 46% of x + 12% of (900-x)

\Rightarrow \frac{35}{100}\times 900=\frac{46}{100}\times x+\frac{12}{100}\times (900-x)

\Rightarrow  35\times 900 = 46x + 12\times 900 - 12 x

\Rightarrow 34x= 900(35-12)

\Rightarrow x = (900\times 23)/34

\Rightarrow x = 608.82 lbs.

So, the amount of Soyabean = 608.82 pounds.

The amount of Oats  = 900-608.82 = 291.18 pounds.
