The formula to calculate the Parking Lot Salt (PLS) is:
\[ PLS = \frac{A}{1000} \times 2.3 \]
Where:
Parking lot salt refers to the amount of salt needed to treat a parking lot to prevent ice formation and improve safety during winter conditions. The amount of salt required depends on the total area of the parking lot.
Let's assume the following values:
Using the formula to calculate the Parking Lot Salt (PLS):
\[ PLS = \frac{A}{1000} \times 2.3 = \frac{5000}{1000} \times 2.3 = 5 \times 2.3 = 11.5 \text{ lbs} \]
The Parking Lot Salt (PLS) is 11.5 lbs.
