The best explanation I have seen is on the forums at IE for that same
lab problem. There is a formula that you can use some good ole algebra
to solve for your metric. It's kind of nasty and it would have to be
memorized for the lab - along with the strange units they use (e.g. 10s
of milliseconds)

Subject: EIGRP variance load sharing help

Can anyone offer any insight on how to quickly determine the EIGRP
metrics for a particular variance load sharing ratio. I struggled with
the IE lab 8 EIGRP variance question and ended up trying different
delays and bandwidth and ultimately calculating them to figure out the
question. However, this could eat up time if this was the real test.
Is there a quick rule or procedure for getting a particular metric and
load sharing ratio? In particular, Is there a way to avoid going over
the FD?

Thanks.
