How to calculate the lithium to silicon ratio

Lithium to Silicon ratio = Lithium price per Metric Ton ÷ Silicon price per Metric Ton

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

Worked example, live prices: $160,500.00 ÷ $1,923.91 = 83.42. The inverse is 0.01199.
