Default HASA 12% chlorine to household bleach amount of water

I was diluting 2 parts HASA with 1 part water but I was just guessing based
on a pool calculator which said that 1 gallon of 6% household bleach gave a
given pool 1.6 parts per million free chlorine as compared to a gallon of
HASA 12.5% pool chlorine which gave that same pool 3.2 parts per million of
free chlorine.

Since 1.6 goes into 3.2 twice, I was mixing 2 parts of HASA to one part
water, but I wasn't sure if that was correct.

Do you think it should be 1:1 HASA to water or 2:1 HASA to water to mimic
bleach?
