your hashrate is calculate first by hardware then algo. simply because you have a higher hashrate with one algo it does not mean you should mine it! i advise to take a look at this website

Topic: Difference in hashrate (Read 375 times)
I'm getting a huge difference in hashrate mining different coins from my GPU.
I'm getting 100 H/s for one. 550 H/s for other and 1600 H/s for another one.
Does that mean it's good for me to mine the third coin? (Assuming the coins have same price)
Of course if you have more hash rate but coins prices are equal for all three then it logically more profitable as compared to other two coins. But what is needed to be checked is, what coin it is and how it is doing in the market. If the coin is having good price but its easily dump type then you can stop mining it. Look for the potential of coins in the future because for mining them it takes time and just exchanging them for scrap price won't be profitable for you.
exactly as Undefined31415 said, you can use calculators such as

Hashrates on different mining algorithms are basically independent.
100 megahashes per second on SHA-256 (suppose you're mining BTC) is not the same as 100 megahashes per second on Scrypt (suppose you're mining LTC) and neither are the same as mining at 100 megahashes per second on Equihash (suppose you're mining ZEC), etc.
You need to run the profitability calculations on each coin based on how well your hardware performs on the algorithm that corresponds to the coin. There is no mixing.
