Enter the total number of types and the total number of tokens into the Type-Token Ratio Calculator. The calculator will evaluate the Type-Token Ratio.

## Type-Token Ratio Formula

The following two example problems outline the steps and information needed to calculate the Type-Token Ratio.

TTR = TYP / TOK

Variables:

• TTR is the Type-Token Ratio
• TYP is the total number of types
• TOK is the total number of tokens

To calculate the type token ratio, divide the total number of types by the total number of tokens.

## How to Calculate Type-Token Ratio?

The following steps outline how to calculate the Type-Token Ratio.

1. First, determine the total number of types.
2. Next, determine the total number of tokens.
3. Next, gather the formula from above = TTR = TYP / TOK * 100.
4. Finally, calculate the Type-Token Ratio.
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.

total number of types = 50

total number of tokens = 75

TTR = TYP / TOK * 100 = ?
