To calculate the Fertilizer Rate:
\[ FR = \frac{RN}{\left(\frac{PN}{100}\right)} \]
Where:
Let's assume the following values:
Step 1: Convert the percentage to a decimal:
\[ \frac{PN}{100} = \frac{10}{100} = 0.1 \]
Step 2: Divide the rate of desired nutrient by the decimal value:
\[ FR = \frac{50}{0.1} = 500 \text{ lbs of fertilizer} \]
Let's assume the following values:
Step 1: Convert the percentage to a decimal:
\[ \frac{PN}{100} = \frac{15}{100} = 0.15 \]
Step 2: Divide the rate of desired nutrient by the decimal value:
\[ FR = \frac{30}{0.15} = 200 \text{ lbs of fertilizer} \]
