document.write( "Question 465300: I have to use two different types of milk (eg. Milk A & B)which have two different protein to fat ratios - in percents per 100 litre of milk.
\n" ); document.write( "In milk A, the protein to fat ratio is 3.22/ 3.85. = .836
\n" ); document.write( "In milk B, the protein to fat ratio is 5.18/ 2.67 = 1.94
\n" ); document.write( "What quantities of milk A and B should be used to get 7000 L of mix at a ratio of (protein/fat) = 1.01
\n" ); document.write( "If possible let me know the equation used for this
\n" ); document.write( "thanks
\n" ); document.write( "However I tried with the eqn
\n" ); document.write( "A+B = 7000, so A = 7000-B\r
\n" ); document.write( "\n" ); document.write( "A(.836) + B(1.94) = 7000(1.01)
\n" ); document.write( "I got the answer also but When I check their Quantities multiply with their Individual Protein and Fat ; then their ratios are not matching
\n" ); document.write( "e.g 5899 Qty of milk Fat (A) + 1101 Qty of milk Fat (B) when added up to Total fat and same way for Protein ....and now when we take protein/Fat then it shows diff ratio.....Can U explain this
