Evaluating ratio meat/fat
From Mathematics Is A Science
Jump to navigationJump to searchLet's compute how lean is this piece of meat based entirely on the photograph.
Fortunately Pixcavator captures dark and light separately and the data is saved in a spreadsheet.
The amount of meat (red) is 35,350 pixels:
The amount of fat (green) is 8,931 pixels:
Conclusion: The proportion of fat to meat is about 1:4.
Run this analysis with Pixcavator SI.
A more realistic scenario is analyzed here: Evaluating ratio meat/fat 2.
