Sugar/ malt extract

[Yeastman]

If you use 1k of sugar in a kit what is the equivalent in liquid malt extract and dried malt extract.

White sugar and dry malt extract have the same value ........374 fermentable points per kg

Liquid malt (including the stuff in the kit can) and glucose (brewing sugar) have a value of 300 per kg

I often see the rule of thumb that a 1.5 kg tin of liquid can be substituted with 1 kg of dry. The maths doesn't work out!
