For a classroom mass-balance exercise, ingredient A contains 70% of a specified constituent and B contains 30%. Make 8000 g blend at 55%. Percentages are by mass and additive; ignore interactions and losses. This calculation does not establish allergen, labelling or food-safety suitability.
Calculate the constituent contributed by A in grams. Keep intermediate values unrounded; round the final answer to 4 decimal places if needed.
