How to calculate the hot-rolled coil steel to lithium ratio
Hot-Rolled Coil Steel to Lithium ratio = Hot-Rolled Coil Steel price per Metric Ton ÷ Lithium price per Metric Ton
The two legs use different units, so the result is a rate — Metric Tons of lithium per Metric Ton of hot-rolled coil steel — rather than a plain count.
Worked example, live prices: $1,199.07 ÷ $160,500.00 = 0.007471. The inverse is 133.9.
