Pearson Square Calculator

Pearson’s Square Calculator

Pearson Process
Parts (A : B)
Percent of final mix
Weights (if total provided)
Enter values and press Calculate. A should be higher concentration than desired, B lower than desired for a valid Pearson square.
Tip: Use absolute differences: parts A = (desired – B), parts B = (A – desired). If either part ≤ 0 the mix is invalid.

What Is a Pearson Square Calculator?

The Pearson Square Calculator is a simple yet powerful tool used to calculate the correct proportions of two ingredients with different concentrations to achieve a desired final concentration. It is commonly used in animal nutrition, food formulation, dairy mixing, feed formulation, and various laboratory applications.

This tool helps users quickly determine the exact parts of each ingredient needed without doing complex math — making it ideal for students, nutritionists, feed manufacturers, and professionals who regularly work with formula balancing.


How the Pearson Square Method Works

The Pearson Square method follows a straightforward calculation:

  1. Enter the desired concentration of the final mixture.
  2. Add the concentration of ingredient A.
  3. Add the concentration of ingredient B.
  4. The calculator automatically generates:
    • The difference between each ingredient and the target value
    • The exact ratio of ingredient A to ingredient B
    • The final mixing proportions

This ensures accuracy and saves time compared to manual calculations.
