Dam: Simbrah 5/8 Simmental 3/8 Brahman
Sire: Brangus 5/8 Angus 3/8 Brahman

What is calve's percentage?
I figure the calf is still 3/8 Brahman, 1/4 Angus, 1/4 Simmental and 1/8 of something else? I know my math is wrong. You can't have 1/8 of something else.

Help! I just can't figure it out.
 
Your math is very close.

3/8 Bra, 5/16 Sim, 5/16 Angus.

5/16 Simmental, 5/16 Angus, 3/8 Brahama. I think that is right, is it?

(edit)I guess I was figuring while Dun was answering. See who the mentor is and it ain't me.
 
If I bred this calve to a purebred simmental, what would the calve's % be?
