Question 1

What is a dilution ratio?

Accepted Answer

A dilution ratio like 1:10 means 1 part concentrate mixed with 10 parts of water (or other diluent). The total volume is 11 parts. This tool converts any ratio plus a target final volume into the exact amounts of concentrate and water you need to measure.

Question 2

How is dilution percentage different from a ratio?

Accepted Answer

A 1:10 ratio equals about 9.09% concentrate by volume. A 1+1 (50%) dilution equals a 1:1 ratio. The tool shows the resulting percentage so you can switch between ratio, percentage and parts per million.
