A stream of growth medium containing 60% glucose and 40% growth factor A flowing at 500 kg per hour was divided into two feed streams for different cell cultures. One fourth of the growth medium was sent to fermenter 1 and the rest was sent to fermenter 2. What is the flow rates of glucose and growth factor A in the feed streams for the two fermenters
