Exegetical and Hermeneutical Commentary of Numbers 15:6

Or for a ram, thou shalt prepare [for] a meat offering two tenth deals of flour mingled with the third [part] of a hin of oil.

Two tenth deals; because this belonged to a better sacrifice than the former; and therefore in the next sacrfice of a bullock there are three tenth deals. So the accessory sacrifice grows proportionably with the principal.
