Answer:

95.91 g

Explanation:

First we convert the given masses of grain and hay into grams:

  • 0.75 lb of grain * 454 g/lb = 340.5 g of grain
  • 4.25 lb of hay * 454 g/lb = 1929.5 g of hay

Now we calculate how many grams of protein Trixie consumes from grain:

  • 340.5 g of grain * 14/100 = 47.67 g protein

And do the same for hay:

  • 1929.5 g of hay * 2.5/100 = 48.24 g protein

Finally we add the protein grams:

  • 47.67 + 48.24 = 95.91 g
