Recent articles comparing microwave and hard X-ray observations of solar flares pose a disagreement over the portion of ambient electrons that are accelerated in solar flares. In the events studied, microwave observations suggest more electrons are accelerated than the numbers derived with HXR observations. Further comparison of HXR-derived and MW-derived accelerated electron distributions can help better understand this disagreement. The simultaneous observations available using the Solar Orbiter/STIX and EOVSA instruments allow this type of investigation. In this presentation, we present an analysis of seven recent flares, reporting on the derived number of electrons and imaging morphology from both wavelengths.
