Chapter 2.4, Problem 1EQ

Suppose that, in Example 2.27, 400 units of food A,600 units of B, and 600 units of C are placed in the test tube each day and the data on daily food consumption by the bacteria (in units per day) are as shown in Table 2.6. How many bacteria of each strain can coexist in the test tube and consume all of the food?

Table 2.6
	Bacteria Strain I	Bacteria Strain II	Bacteria Strain III
Food A	1	2	0
Food B	2	1	1
Food C	1	1	2
