How to use this calculator

  1. Enter the values you know in the units shown. Leave unknown values blank.
  2. Results update automatically as you type. Edit a result to calculate another value, or lock a value to keep it fixed.
  3. Reset restores the starting fields. A worked example appears below.

Private by default

Inputs and results stay in this browser tab. Bookify does not upload or store the values you enter.

Formula and method

Enter the values you know and leave unknown values blank. The equations below calculate the remaining values, including reverse calculations where enough inputs are available.

base = value × source factor + source offset; result = (base − destination offset) ÷ destination factor

Worked example

Assumptions and limitations

  • Inputs must satisfy the validation rules. Editing a result can recalculate an earlier input; lock values you want to keep fixed.

Common questions

Can I calculate a different unknown?

Yes. Clear that field and enter the other known values. The calculator uses the available inverse equations.
