Step 2 of 3

Calculate the Horizontal Grid Center by dividing the total of the horizontal axis by the product of total
tons and rate (R).  

ΣRDM
Horizontal Grid Center =
ΣRM
7700R
=
2100R
= 3.67

Step 3 of 3

Calculate the Vertical Grid Center by dividing the total of the vertical axis by the product of total tons and
rate (R).  

ΣRDM
Vertical Grid Center =
ΣRM
10700R
=
2100R
= 5.09

Final answer 숥

Least Cost Location: (3.67,5.09)
