Question
A soil sample has the following size distribution;
4 to 2mm = 17%,
2 to 0.05 mm = 12%,
0.5 to 0.005 mm = 22%
0.005 to 0.002 mm = 10%
<0.002 mm = 39%
what are the percentages of clay, silt, and sand? Using USDA calssification what is the modifier and tetural classification

Step 1
Given data:
Size | Percentage |
4 to 2mm | 17% |
2 to 0.05 mm | 12% |
0.05 to 0.005 mm | 22% |
0.005 to 0.002 mm | 10% |
less than 0.002 mm | 39% |
Note :
In the third row 0.5 is given but it has to be 0.05
