Given :

• A farmer kept 96 kilograms of animal feed in his barn.

• The barn leaked and 1/10 of the feed was wasted.

Given that 1/10 of the feed was wasted means that 10% of the feed was wasted. To find how much animal feed wased we use unitary method.

Given that 96 kilograms of animal feed in his barn is the 100% animal feed. So the 10% animal feed wasted is given by:
