Carry out this task
- Save the Before values on the linked tool.
- Enter the combined measured available mass after receipt.
- Calculate & Save the After values on the same item. Check the ID is retained rather than creating another physical item.
Calculation and observed tool result
Before
500 ÷ 100 = 5 days; use your measured consumption, not a feeding recommendation.Recorded quantity: 500 g.
After
3,500 ÷ 100 = 35 days; use your measured consumption, not a feeding recommendation.Recorded quantity: 3,500 g.
What the result means
The estimate rises from five to thirty-five days.
Limits of this example
Combine only stock intentionally covered by the same consumption assumption.
A mistake to avoid
Replacing 500 g with 3,000 g would lose the open stock.
