Formula and methodology
Formula: Total plastic mass=items×grams per item; unrecycled mass=total×(1−recycled fraction).
The total material and the fraction remaining outside the supplied recycling stream are shown separately.
This result follows the calculator's declared inputs, precision, validation boundaries, and model limits.
Input contract
- Plastic items — minimum 0; maximum 1000000000
- Grams per item — minimum 0; maximum 1000000
- Recycled fraction — minimum 0; maximum 1
Worked example
| Input | Value |
|---|---|
| Plastic items | 100 |
| Grams per item | 8 |
| Recycled fraction | 0.3 |
Total =800 g; unrecycled =560 g.
Assumptions and limits
- Item count is whole and nonnegative, item mass is nonnegative, and fraction is from zero to one.
- The recycling fraction applies uniformly to the selected mass.
- Collection quality, contamination, transport, product design, and local waste policy are not modeled.
