Calculating Ingredient Wts. using Percentages (ProStart Yr. 2 Ch. 5)

You are using 12 lbs. of flour. Remember that 16 oz = 1 lb, so if the decimal is .25 that equals 4 oz, .50 is 8 oz .75 is 12 oz and so on. Change the % to a decimal and multiply the weight of the flour by the decimal to get the weight of the other ingredient. (Pg. 228)
