Hey everyone I have a bottle of 0 nic eliquid which is 75/25 pg/vg. I am looking to make it 10/90 pg/vg at 20 drops per ml. Only looking to make 5ml total. If possible would you also be able to give me the mix of 75/25 pg/vg to 40/60 pg/vg at 20 drops per ml with a total of 5ml. Thanks so much.

I see two questions here, right? At 20 drops/mL to make 5mL total:

1. Add 86 drops of VG to 14 drops of your 75PG e-liquid. The result will be 10.5PG/89.5VG.
2. Add 47 drops of VG to 53 drops of your 75PG e-liquid. The result will be 39.75PG/60.25VG.

P.S. Expect highly diluted flavor in either mix.

Great thanks so much for your help. I really appreciate it.

1 last question how would I make 75/25 pg/vg into 30/70pg/vg 5ml total. Thanks

Let me tell you how I'm figuring this out for you. At 20 drops/mL, you'll need 100 total drops to get your 5mL.
You're aiming for 30% PG; with pure PG that would be 30 drops out of your 100 drop total.
Since what you'll be using instead is only 75% PG, you divide those 30 drops by 0.75 to achieve your desired PG concentration. Calculation: 30 / 0.75 = 40. Forty drops will supply 30 drops of PG along with 10 drops of VG.

So you use 40 drops of your starting e-liquid, and fill up with 60 drops of pure VG to total 100 drops in your 5mL bottle.

It's the same calculation for your other questions. This one worked out to even numbers, so it was the best chance for an example. Hope it helps!

I get what you saying for this mix but now since the vg was to high for me I decided to make 50/50pg/vg same 5ml 20 drops per mil. I am starting with 25pg/75vg and trying to make 50/50 but I must be doing something wrong because it doesn't seem to be working out.

Do you still have your original 75% PG liquid? If so, the easiest thing to do is mix that in equal parts with your new 75% VG liquid, yielding a 50/50 result. Use 50 drops of each to get the 100 drops/5mL total we've discussed so far.

If you're working with pure PG instead, use the formula I gave you above. For 50/50, you want 50 drops of glycerin, but your starting mix is 75% VG, so divide the 50 drops by 0.75 to find how many drops of it to use.

How are you? Thanks again, I am using my usual Dr fog line not the original juice which was 75/25 pg/vg. They told me in an email it is 24/76 pg/vg so if it want 50/50 I divided .76 into 50 and got about 66. So does that mean add 66 drops of my 24/76 pg/vg Dr fog and add 34 drops straight pgto roughly get 50/50? Sorry to bother you but I would like to figure this out so I know myself.

How are you? Just wondering wondering if you could help me with this one to hopefully be able to do it on my own.

Yes, that's the solution!
Sorry to leave you hanging. I don't check this sub-forum as often, so I didn't realize you were asking until I got the Reply alert.

No problem, so does it matter that number I devide into. If I want higher pg do I devide into the pg and if I want higher vg do I devide into that.

Consider which component of the starting liquid that needs to be reduced (VG in your example), and use its decimal concentration (.76 in your example) as the divisor for your target measurement of that component (50 drops in your example, though it would also work for mL). That will tell you the measure of starting solution needed to achieve the target concentration of the reducing component.
