Passivation bath titration calculations

Anyone have the formulas for calculating %v HNO3 and %wt Na2Cr2O7 using 1.0 N NaOH [1N NaOH on Amazon [affil links] and 0.1N sodium thiosulphate ⇦this on eBay or Amazon [affil links] ? I've been using the same ones for the past 20 years. They work. But I don't remember how I calculated them or where I found them.
