At my local farmer's merchant, you can buy chicken feed for 15c per tonne, pig feed for $1.25 per tonne, and cattle feed for 40c per tonne. The feed can only be purchased by the tonne, and part tonnes aren't sold.
Last week I bought some animal feed, and luckily I managed to buy exactly 100 tonnes for exactly $100. How much of each feed did I buy?
