The formula for calculating LDL is as follows

LDL cholesterol = total cholesterol - HDL - (triglycerides / 5)

So, if you have a cholesterol level of 200 and an HDL of 50, your LDL would be

200-50-(370/5)=76 which is really damned good.

Interesting...never knew how they calculated LDL. The equation Hamas posted checks out. My LDL is 33.
