That is a pretty difficult question to answer considering the large number of brands and product lines in the marketplace. The actual blend percentages are likely to be as varied as the brands and formulations themselves. Most specs are proprietary but you may be able to find approximate percentages by contacting customer support departments of the various producers.

Can you mix fully synthetic oil with conventional?
It depends on the type of synthetic oil - Synthetic oils based on polyalphaolefin (PAO) / ester blends (e.g. Mobil 1) can be mixed with conventional oil - but you lose the benefit of the synthetic components the more you dilute it. You need to ask yourself why you want to mix it or why you need to use the synthetic oil in the first place - if you're using a synthetic to overcome a mechanical problem (e.g. insufficient heat transfer / oil cooling) then mixing with conventional oil is a waste as you won't fix the problem, same for synthetic gear oils if you are looking for heat transfer out of the drive train - only the "pure" oil will give the best heat transfer response. OTOH, if you are looking for extended oil drain interval, mixing synthetic 50/50 with conventional oil will assist.
