Simple question hopefully (for those that are good at maths)

[Simon G]

If I have a 10ml 18mg 70% VG nic shot

I take 2ml out

and add back in 2ml of PG based one-shot concentrate (the recommended 20%)

what VG% and Nic level will I end up with?

I hoping this will be the easiest way for me to try the dripworx tobaccos without too much messing around.

You may well laugh. *Shit at maths*

 

[Mr Numpty]

Too late buster.

 

[Simon G]

I worked the VG% to be 56% (as I'm taking out a 5th of the original 70) but I'm not confident with maths to know if that's right.

Too late buster.

I wanted to laugh and thank you for tagging ment, but it seems you can't really do both then.

 

[Simon G]

would the nic be 14.4mg using the same principle?

I could live with that ... 56% VG 14.4mg isn't too far away from normal, no idea if that's right though!!

 

[Mr Numpty]

I believe the nic strength will be 14.4, but the PG/VG ratio is way beyond my capabilities. I'll accept the lol and thank.

The way I'm looking at it is

Forget the PG as that doesn't matter, what I'm doing is removing a 5th of the VG content overall ... right?

70 divided by 5 is 14 ... 70 - 14 =56 ... so there's 56% VG left?

That's what I get.
70% of 10ml = 7ml
7/5 = 1.4
7 - 1.4 = 5.6 = 56% of 10ml.
