Answer: 192 lbs
Total weight of manure = 2 tons
Step1: we need to converts tons to pounds
1 ton = 2000 lb
2 tons = x lb
Cross multiply
2 x 2000 = 1 * x
x = 2 x 2000
x = 4000 lbs
Therefore, 2 ton of manure = 4000 lbs of manure
We have 4.8% of N in the manure
Pounds of N = 4.8/100 x 4000
Pounds of N = 0.048 x 4000
Pounds of N = 192 lbs
The pounds of N in 2 tons of manure is 192 lbs
