Can anyone give me feedback about the previous percent 50%, Is this percent is relative to the total mix volume or related to the total volume of aggregates (coarse and fine)? Please explain me.

Here, The percentage of the aggregate of F.M. 2.6 to be combined.

i.e If the total amount of F.M 2.6 is 100% now then how much % of Aggregate will be required to obtain an F.M 5.4 with 100% amount of F. M. 6.8 aggregates.

X=P2-P/P-P1*100.

P2=6.8.
P1= 2.8.
P=5.4.

X= 6.8-5.4/5.4 - 2.8 * 100.
= 50%.
