Cumulative percentage of weight retained on all the six sieves = 292 Fineness Modulus of Fine Aggregates = 292/100 =2.92 kg. Now, when it is desired to obtain a combined aggregate of a definite (required) fineness modulus, F, the amount of fine aggregate (x) to be mixed with 1 volume of the coarse aggregate of a given fineness modulus can be easily determined from the relationship:
