FormulaUsable combined length = Math.min(a/strandsA,b/strandsB); Unused yarn A = a-Math.min(a/strandsA,b/strandsB)*strandsA; Unused yarn B = b-Math.min(a/strandsA,b/strandsB)*strandsB

Made for real tasks

Worked example

Inputs

Length of yarn A
600 m
Length of yarn B
450 m
Strands of A held together
2 strands
Strands of B held together
1 strands

Expected results

Usable combined length
300 m
Unused yarn A
0 m
Unused yarn B
150 m

How to use this tool

  1. Enter length of yarn a, length of yarn b, strands of a held together, and strands of b held together in the displayed units.
  2. Calculate and use each labeled result for yarn held together supply. Compare the result with a measured sample before committing materials.

Try this example

{
  "a": 600,
  "b": 450,
  "strandsA": 2,
  "strandsB": 1
}

Accuracy and scope

Lengths are physical yarn lengths; this does not predict the gauge or yarn-weight category of the combined strands.
