Peter combines 160 grams of half-and-half containing 20% fat and 50 grams of milk. He makes a creamer that is 20% fat.

Suppose the milk contains x% fat. how many grams of fat are in the 50 grams of milk?

Given that creamer is 20% fat. If he made creamer using 160 gr of half-half and 50 gr of milk and creamer turned out to be 20% fat, it would make sense that 50 gr of milk contains 0% of fat. This question one is missing some key info.

Answer:Much like heavy cream, half-and-half is a dairy product. It's made by combining equal parts cream and whole milk, resulting in a product that's thinner and lower in fat than heavy cream.
