How to calculate the lithium to ethanol ratio

Lithium to Ethanol ratio = Lithium price per Metric Ton ÷ Ethanol price per Gallon

The two legs use different units, so the result is a rate — Gallons of ethanol per Metric Ton of lithium — rather than a plain count.

Worked example, live prices: $160,500.00 ÷ $2.12 = 75708. The inverse is 0.00001321.
