Butter is 3/8 of seeds mass. Draw a chart describing the amount of butter in flax seeds

Assuming “butter” is 3/8 of the seed mass, and the rest (non-butter) is 5/8.

• General relation:

  • Butter mass B = (3/8) × Seed mass S
  • Non-butter mass = (5/8) × S

• Simple ASCII chart (shows the ratio 3:5 in an 8-unit bar)

  • Butter: ### (3 units)
  • Non-butter: ----- (5 units)
  • Full bar: [###-----] (8 units total)

• Example values (showing both weights and a bar)

  • Seed mass S = 8 g
    • Butter = 3 g, Non-butter = 5 g
    • Bar: [###-----]
  • Seed mass S = 16 g
    • Butter = 6 g, Non-butter = 10 g
    • Bar: [######----------]
  • Seed mass S = 24 g
    • Butter = 9 g, Non-butter = 15 g
    • Bar: [#########-----------]

• Quick help to plot it (optional)

  • In Excel/Sheets:
    • Column A: Seed mass S
    • Column B: Butter = (3/8)×S
    • Column C: Non-butter = (5/8)×S
    • Create a stacked bar chart with series Butter and Non-butter.
  • In Python (matplotlib):
    • Example:
      • import matplotlib.pyplot as plt
      • S = [8, 16, 24]
      • B = [3/8*s for s in S]
      • N = [5/8*s for s in S]
      • plt.bar(range(len(S)), B, label='Butter')
      • plt.bar(range(len(S)), N, bottom=B, label='Non-butter')
      • plt.legend()
      • plt.show()

If you want, tell me a specific seed mass and I’ll generate a tailored chart (ASCII and a ready-to-plot data table).
