 to calculate percentages of fertilizer in a given bag.
 i.e.. 10-10-10 50 lb bag would be 50X.10=5 (50lbs X fertilizer number =
 nutrient percentage.
 
 there-fore a 50lb bag of 10-10-10 will have 5% nitrogen 5% phosphorus and 5%
 potassium
 or 5 lbs of nitrogen 5 lbs of phosphorus and 5 lbs of potassium
 
 what do you think?

      Glenn,
    Not quite right on the  Numbers. The numbers on the bag are the 
percentages of avail NPK. So a 50 pound bag of 10-10-10  has 5 pounds each of 
NP and K.
