Answer: 192 lbs

Total weight of manure = 2 tons

Step1: we need to converts tons to pounds

1 ton = 2000 lb

2 tons = x lb

Cross multiply

2 x 2000 = 1 * x

x = 2 x 2000

x = 4000 lbs

Therefore, 2 ton of manure = 4000 lbs of manure

We have 4.8% of N in the manure

Pounds of N = 4.8/100 x 4000

Pounds of N = 0.048 x 4000

Pounds of N = 192 lbs

The pounds of N in 2 tons of manure is 192 lbs
