Q

alligation

A

high [ ] …………………….x parts of higher [ ]
————-desired [ ]———————-
low [ ]……………………….x parts of lower [ ]

  • high goes high: write the higher [ ] on the top left
  • low goes low: write the lower [ ] on the lower left
  • write the desired [ ] in the middle
  • subtract the diagonally to obtain the parts (high/low [ ] and the desired [ ])
  • divide the total desired amount by the sum of parts to get amount per part
  • x parts of higher multiplied by amount per part to get how much of higher
