Enter the total copper ingested and the total zinc ingested into the Copper Zinc Ratio Calculator. The calculator will evaluate and display the Copper Zinc Ratio. 

Copper Zinc Ratio Formula

The following formula is used to calculate the Copper Zinc Ratio. 

CZR = C / Z
  • Where CZR is the Copper Zinc Ratio ( )
  • C is the total copper ingested 
  • Z is the total zinc ingested 

To calculate the copper zinc ratio, divide the copper ingested by the zinc ingested.

How to Calculate Copper Zinc Ratio?

The following example problems outline how to calculate Copper Zinc Ratio.

Example Problem #1:

  1. First, determine the total copper ingested.
    • The total copper ingested is given as: 80.
  2. Next, determine the total zinc ingested.
    • The total zinc ingested is provided as: 10.
  3. Finally, calculate the Copper Zinc Ratio using the equation above: 

CZR = C / Z

The values given above are inserted into the equation below and the solution is calculated:

CZR = 80 / 10 = 8.00


Example Problem #2: 

For this problem, the variables required are provided below:

total copper ingested = 100

total zinc ingested = 20

Test your knowledge using the equation and check your answer with the calculator above.

CZR = C / Z = ?
