The study specifically deals with a problem whether the soft X-rays over the 8-12 A region can but scaled to determine an equivalent flux over the 6-280 A wavelength region used for stellar flares. Scaling factors from one region to another are built based on fluxes published for several spectra, an approximate overall scaling factor relating F(8-12) to F(6-280) is determined, and it is found that 15 F(8-12) are approximately equal to F(6-280). Applying the factor 15 to the solar soft X-ray data, and a factor 1/3 to convert the H-alpha to H-gamma flux, the solar-flare data is plotted on the same diagram as the stellar-flare data, and it is observed that the solar flares obey the same relationship between the Balmer and soft X-ray flux as do their stellar counterparts.
