  3. Choose Calculate & Save and compare the displayed result with the worked calculation.

Calculation and observed tool result

Stock = 1 × 1500 + 500 = 2,000 ml; floor(2,000 ÷ 50) = 40 loads

Recorded quantity: 2,000 ml.

What the result means

Two thousand millilitres support forty complete loads.

A mistake to avoid

A millilitre dose cannot be applied to a gram quantity.

Limits of this example

The fifty-millilitre amount is illustrative, not a dosing recommendation.
