Ratio is 5:3 Soybean meal to cornmeal to get proper percentage of protein.

For every 5 pounds of soybean meal, there are 3 pounds of cornmeal

Add these together to get 8 lbs. 320/8=40

5*40=200

3*40=120

So you need 200 pounds soybean meal, 120 pounds cornmeal to equal 320 lbs total with an 11% protein mixture

s+c=280 => c=280-s

s*.14+c*.07=280*.12 => s*.14+c*.07=33.6 => 2*s+c=480 => c=480-2*s

280-s = 480-2*s => s = 200

c=280-s => c=280-200 = 80

so, 200 lbs of soybean meal and 80 lbs of cornmeal.

Check our answer:

200*.14+80*.07=28+5.6=33.60 and 33.60/280=0.12=12%.

How many pounds each of a soybean meal at 16 percent protein and cornmeal at 8 percent protein should be mixed together in order to get 320-lb mixture that is 14 percent protein?

Let S be the amount in pounds of soyabean meal and C be the amount in pounds of cornmeal.You can create two equations relating S & C by considering the amount of protein and total weight:16% S + 8% C = 14% of 320 lbS + C = 320 lbwhich can be used together to solve for S and C:subtract 6¼ times {1} from {2} to get:S - 16%S × 6¼ + C - 8% C × 6¼ = 320 - 14 × 6¼ of 320→ 100% S - 100% S + 100% C - 50% C = 100% of 320 - 87½% of 320→ 50% C = 12½% of 320→ C = 25% of 320 = 80Now substitute for C in {2}:S + 80 = 320→ S = 240Therefore you need 240lb of soyabean meal and 80 lb of cornmeal.


Is oatmeal a compound?

No. A compound is a mixture of several elements compounded together. Masa harina is sometimes confused with cornmeal. Masa is made soaking cornmeal in lime water, then grinding it into a fine flour and an agent is (optionally, but commonly) added to prevent caking. By adding the anti-caking agent, you create a compound, but cornmeal is ground fairly coarse, and no caking agent is required.


Is partially hydrogenated soybean oil an element compound or mixture?

Well, you know it is not an element. It is made of carbon and hydrogen to start with and I haven't seen oil on the periodic table.So, we're trying to decide between compound and mixture. What is the identifying characteristic of compounds? They have definite composition.Ask yourself, "Does this stuff come out the exact same every time it's made? Can it change and still be partially hydrogentated soybean oil?" I think you can see that it is still soybean oil, regardless of how hydrogenated it is, so it does change. Therefore it cannot be a compound.That leaves mixture.


Is oil a pure or mixture?

It can be either. It is very often soybean oil, but can be a mixture of several. That is if it is labeled just cooking oil. If it is corn, canola, olive or some stated type, it should only be that kind.
