You calculate as a percentage, and the only way to do that is by using an example.
Assume that this "cow" that you're feeding corn to weighs 800 lbs. Grain is usually fed to a bovine at 1% of a cow's body weight per day, as-fed. So, the calculations are as follows:
800 lbs x 0.01 = 8 lbs of grain (as corn) per day. In the real world, this can range from this number to up to 12 lbs of grain per day for an 800 lb growing calf.

Let pounds of lima=x and corn=y and since we want 7cents/pound lets set an equation to equal that. .09x + .06y = .07; x+y=1pound => y=1-x calculate calculate calculate and we get x=.3333 insert into equation and y=.6666. We see that x is half of y and since we require 2 pounds of corn we need 1 pound of lima beans and end up with 3 pounds of mixed vegetables . Check with .09 +.12=.21 ; .21/3=.07 Therefore we need one pound of lima beans.
