I was going to suggest that Filippe submit one, since he did most of the work.

I don't see any problem since there are NO answers to this question and she said she wanted to close it!!!

abe(L)solano: how is the discussion box "somewhere else"? You shouldn't encourage people to close questions without awarding points.
abe(L)solano Jun 17, 2022:
@Kathryn If you know the answer, you can close the question w/o giving points as "found the answer somewhere else" (because it was through the discussion, not a formal answer). I think there's also the "just closed" option.

Either what Filippe says or a typo for sbs. I knew that obd is on dry basis, so yes, either way, this is definitely odb. Thanks, guys! I don't know how to handle the grading/closing of this, please advise.

Filippe So you think sba is the Spanish for odb? That figures, though if so it's probably "su" rather than "sustancia".
You can be blind and still stumble onto the right answer.

think this is a case of the blind leading the blind
The translation is in the example itself :) As Phil notes, o.d.b. is "on dry basis"; "sba" is "sustancia base anhidra".

For what it's worth I think odb is on dry basis. Could sba be "su base" something?
