Assignmennt 8 Q2

Kanine Health Inc. manufacturers pet food and used a linear programming model to minimize costs while meeting nutritional constraints. The model found a solution with 17.02% of units as C, 22.77% as L, 0% as W, and 60.20% as R. This solution met all constraints and had a minimum cost of $0.687696. The solution time was over 4,600 seconds with 5 subproblems and iterations.
