I've played with blends quite a bit, Stratus follows the energy curve, no sweet spot for it.
The 2 FFV I've had are more energy efficent with E85 then E10, meaning mileage went down but not as much as expected by the energy content.
Running the numbers is pretty easy if you just focus on the E. 1 gallon E85 has .85 gallon E, 2 gallon E10 has 0.2 gallons so 1.05 gal E in 3 gallons total = 1.05/3.0 = 35%
Measuring E content of blends is pretty easy as well. Take a calibrated cylinder fill 1/4 to half full with water, add same amount of your fuel blend. Mix, let stand, water & E will separate to bottom, so if you started with 100 ml water & 100 ml fuel, and now have 125 ml water & E you had a blend of E25. (I've never done it but that's how it should work).
