How to calculate the methanol to ethanol ratio
Methanol to Ethanol ratio = Methanol 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 methanol — rather than a plain count.
Worked example, live prices: $2,861.00 ÷ $2.12 = 1350. The inverse is 0.0007410.
