\n" ); document.write( "\n" ); document.write( "How much sugar do I need to make 4 batches? 11 batches?\r
\n" ); document.write( "\n" ); document.write( "Now do the same to determine how much water I would need to make the same numbers of batches.
\n" ); document.write( "---------------------
\n" ); document.write( "W = 4S or
\n" ); document.write( "S = W/4 both by volume.
\n" ); document.write( "------------------
\n" ); document.write( "If a batch is 1 Sugar and 4 Water,
\n" ); document.write( "1B = 1S + 4W
\n" ); document.write( "n batches = n*(S + 4W)
\n" ); document.write( "----------
\n" ); document.write( "I don't know why you'd make batches of liquid. Mix it in the 4:1 ratio and fill the feeders with however much they hold.
\n" ); document.write( "====================
\n" ); document.write( "The birds are migratory. You'll see as they pass thru, then they'll be gone for months.
