Lean Meat Ratio Formula
The following formula is used to calculate the Lean Meat Ratio.
LMR = (M-F) / M * 100
- Where LMR is the Lean Meat Ratio (%)
- M is the total amount of meat (g)
- F is the total amount of fat (g)
How to Calculate Lean Meat Ratio?
The following example problems outline how to calculate Lean Meat Ratio.
Example Problem #1:
- First, determine the total amount of meat (g).
- The total amount of meat (g) is given as: 40.
- Next, determine the total amount of fat (g).
- The total amount of fat (g) is provided as: 10.
- Finally, calculate the Lean Meat Ratio using the equation above:
LMR = (M-F) / M * 100
The values given above are inserted into the equation below and the solution is calculated:
LMR = (40-10) / 40 * 100 = 75 (%)
Example Problem #2:
For this problem, the variables required are provided below:
total amount of meat (g) = 60
total amount of fat (g) = 20
Test your knowledge using the equation and check your answer with the calculator above.
LMR = (M-F) / M * 100 = ?
