I am working on a Dividing head calculator phone app and need some help with the math. 40-1 dividing head and I want to divide 7 times then I turn handle 5 turns and 35 holes on a 49 hole plate. I know that you divide 40 by 7 and get 5.71. so I am guessing that is the 5 turns but what math do I need to do to get the 35 holes on a 49 plate from the .71 or am I going about this all the wrong way? I have a Excel spread sheet that will do this but I just can not figure it out. Math is not my best subject so all help will be greatly appreciated.
Thanks
