I need math help on this one, I am reverse engineering a mixture and trying to come up with the ratio.
Example
Oxidizer is 183 Grams
Fuel is 23 Grams

Questions what is the ratio for this mixture? In Parts per weight?

Correct me if I'm wrong but would it be roughly 10 to 1

At matandch , I believe you were a teacher at one time, so I know you checked his work. LOL . I think I can say this is an 8 to 1 ppw mixture.

That is correct, I'm a retired math/alt ed teacher. Rounding up and for practical purposes 8:1 would work.
