Calculated by this shortened formula from the above data _T_ = 12.09,
the same as given in the larger formula.
Calculating the solids not fat in the hypothetical case given above by
Babcock’s formula, we get _t_ = 8.46, and this plus 3.5 gives 11.96,
which is slightly lower than the number obtained by the richmond
process.
The babcock formula may be simplified by substituting the number
expressing the reading of the quévenne lactometer for that donating the
specific gravity, in other words, the specific gravity multiplied by
100 and the quotient diminished by 1000.
