2 parts compost, 6 parts potting soil for 10 kg of mix. How many kg of compost

Mathematics

likoan [24]3 years ago

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

A proportion could be used.

With 2 parts of compost and 6 parts potting soil, you would end up with 8 total parts.

So it can be written as a ratio of compost to total mix, or \frac{2}{8}

The problem states 10 kg are needed in total, and the variable would be the amount of compost

As a ratio it would be \frac{x}{10}.

Use the ratios to write a proportion.

\frac{2}{8} = \frac{x}{10}

Multiply both sides of the equation by 10

\frac{20}{8} = x

Convert to a decimal if desired.

x=2.5
