I have a liquid that is 18% active ingredient and want to mix it to 2% in 1 1/3 gallons.?

basically i am mixing an herbacide. the concentrate is 18% active. how many oz. of concentrate to 1 1/3 gal.(~170 oz.) to make it 2% active?I have a liquid that is 18% active ingredient and want to mix it to 2% in 1 1/3 gallons.?
(18 - 2) / 18 - 0 = 8/9 -- the water part


So 1/9 will be the concentrate


170/9 = 18 8/9, so I would use 19 ounces to be sure.I have a liquid that is 18% active ingredient and want to mix it to 2% in 1 1/3 gallons.?
18.88888888oz of concentrate.


It is a 1/9 dilution (going from 18 to 2%)
