Does anyone know if/how I can make half and half from heavy cream and 2% milk?

Ha! Incorrigibly nerdy ex-algebra teacher here. This is one of those mixture problems.

How much 2% solution and how much 36% solution must Andrea combine to get 1 cup of 10% solution? The answer is about 3/4 cups 2% and 1/4 cup heavy cream (which is about 36% milkfat).

But I'm sure equal parts works fine. That's what I put in my coffee when we're out of half and half.

 
Thanks, Pat & Junebug! I knew I could probably do it, but...

I'm glad to hear what the proportions are. Thanks for coming through for me!
