Default can someone help me with the math behind pp\'s preflop?

Hey,

I definitely should know this better, but I'm still unsure with the math behind it.

So, assume nl$1000.

What's the largest percentage of my stack I should put in preflop a low pp, assuming that I will only win the hand if I flop a set?

For instance, if I raise to $35, and it gets repopped to $110, what's the math behind calling? How does this get impacted by another person putting in their $35 too, or $110?

Assume, that if I flop a set, I'll stack the other person like 80% of the time.

Sorry if this post is kind of convoluted and not asking a specific question, but I just want to try and understand the math behind it.

thanks
