Dilution Ratio Calculator

How to Use the Dilution Ratio Calculator

The Dilution Ratio Calculator is an essential tool for determining the appropriate ratio of concentrate to water to achieve the desired dilution level. Follow these simple steps to make the most of this calculator.

Step 1: Enter Concentrate Amount

• Locate the input field labeled Concentrate Amount.
• Enter the quantity of concentrate you are using. The amount must be a number greater than or equal to 0.01.
• This field accepts values in increments of 0.01.

Step 2: Select the Concentrate Unit

• Identify the input field labeled Concentrate Unit.
• Choose the appropriate unit of measurement for your concentrate from the dropdown options: either Milliliters (ml) or Fluid Ounces (oz).
• This selection is required to ensure accurate calculation of the dilution amounts.

Step 3: Choose the Dilution Ratio

• Find the dropdown menu labeled Dilution Ratio (X:1).
• Select the desired dilution ratio from the available options, which range from 2:1 to 40:1.
• This selection will define how much water is added relative to the amount of concentrate.

Step 4: Review the Results

• After entering the above information, the calculator will automatically compute and display the following:
• Water Amount: This shows the amount of water needed to achieve the selected dilution ratio, expressed in the unit you chose for the concentrate, with two decimal places.
• Total Mixture Volume: This indicates the total volume of the mixture (concentrate plus water), in the same unit, with two decimal places.
• Concentrate Percentage in Final Mixture: This percentage represents the ratio of concentrate in the final diluted mixture, rounded to one decimal place.

With the Dilution Ratio Calculator, you can quickly and effectively determine the precise dilution needed for your specific situation, ensuring both accuracy and efficiency.
