Enter the volumes of Part A and Part B into the calculator to determine the total volume. This calculator can also evaluate any of the individual volumes given the total volume and one of the parts.

Ratio To Volume Formula

The following formula is used to calculate the total volume based on the ratio of two parts.

TV = A + B

Variables:

  • TV is the total volume (units)
  • A is the volume of Part A (units)
  • B is the volume of Part B (units)

To calculate the total volume, add the volume of Part A to the volume of Part B.

What is Ratio To Volume?

Ratio to volume is a calculation used to determine the total volume of a mixture based on the volumes of individual components. This is commonly used in applications such as mixing liquids, combining ingredients in cooking, or any scenario where parts of a whole are combined in specific proportions. Understanding the ratio to volume relationship is essential for achieving the desired consistency and properties of a mixture.

How to Calculate Ratio To Volume?

The following steps outline how to calculate the total volume based on the ratio of two parts.


  1. First, determine the volume of Part A (A) in units.
  2. Next, determine the volume of Part B (B) in units.
  3. Next, gather the formula from above = TV = A + B.
  4. Finally, calculate the Total Volume (TV) in units.
  5. After inserting the variables and calculating the result, check your answer with the calculator above.

Example Problem : 

Use the following variables as an example problem to test your knowledge.

volume of Part A (A) = 3 units

volume of Part B (B) = 2 units
