Calculation and observed tool result

Record A

1,000 ÷ 100 = 10 days; use your measured consumption, not a feeding recommendation.

Recorded quantity: 1,000 g.

Record B

1,000 ÷ 50 = 20 days; use your measured consumption, not a feeding recommendation.

Recorded quantity: 1,000 g.

Carry out this task

  1. Open the linked tool for Record A.
  2. Allocate the physical stock and calculate each portion profile separately.
  3. Check each result separately; follow the interpretation before retaining both records as physical stock.

What the result means

The allocations last ten and twenty days respectively.

A mistake to avoid

Do not count the entire shared bag in both records.
