PLEASE SHOW WORK

Assume that you have a beef heifer that weighs 600 pounds and is expected to gain 2.6 lbs. per day. Her crude protein requirement each day is 1.85 lbs. How much of a supplement containing 12% of crude protein would you have to feed to meet this requirement each day?

Solution

amount of feed = x (let)

12 % of x = 1.85

x = 15.42 lbs (ans)
