1/3 of the TW does not get transferred to the trailer, show me your weight tickets. Typically it is more like 15-20%. There are numerous examples of three scale weightings on this forum and I have never seen 1/3. It is usually less than 20%.
I stated 1/3 of the weight removed from the rear axle goes rearward to the trailer. I concur with 15-20% of gross tongue weight as an accurate number. I have spreadsheets for a couple trailers that show in between those, shank length, TV length, and trailer length determining actual.
Sorry, I misunderstood your post.
