The Flustard is an animal that eats three foods: squerps, fleebs, and blurds. A squerp costs $8 and provides 8 mg (milligrams) of mertle, 9 mg of perkle, and 20 mg of kerple. A fleeb costs $7 and provides 9 mg of mertle, 26 mg of perkle, and 7 mg of kerple. A blurd costs $4 and provides 7 mg of mertle, 6 mg of perkle, and 10 mg of kerple. The Flustard needs at least 0.6 g (grams) of mertle, 1.9 g of perkle, and 1.4 g of kerple every day to live. What's the cheapest way to feed your pet Flustard for one day? Use the variables # squerps # fleebs # blurds
