Answer:
138 gallons - milk containing 8% butterfat , 92 gallons - milk containing 3% butterfat
Step-by-step explanation:
Firstly, find the quantity of butterfat in the dairy needs of milk
230/100*6= 2.3*6=13.8 gallons of butterflat
1) Consider gallons each of milk containing 8% butterfat and milk containing 3%, suppose we need x gallons of milk containing 8 percents butterfat, then we need 230-x gallons of milk containing 3percent butterfat.
Then the quantity of the butterfat in the 8percents fat milk is x/100*8= 0.08x
the quantity of the butterfat in the 3percents fat milk is (230-x)/100*3=
=0.03 (230-x) = 6.9-0.03x The amount of butterfat of the both milk containing 8% butterfat and milk containing 3%is equal to 13.8 gallons
Then 0.08x+6.9-0.03x=13.8
0.05x=6.9
x=6.9/0.05= 138 -milk 8 percents
230-x= 230-138= 92
