Default CG calculation using scales

Can someone remind me how to locate CG using scales under the wheels of a tricycle gear plane? More to the point, if I know where it SHOULD be, how to calculate the desired % weight on (say) the nosewheel. I remember from a Dave Platt DVD it's about ratios of CG to wheel positions, I've just had a brain fade!

Thanks,

Cam
