After you have all the applications that you normally in stall on your phone how much free Ram do you have ?

Feeling like a dummy, but how do I see free RAM...?

Don't have much available ram. With everything closed, I'm still sitting at 68% ram usage, 1.2gb free
 
Don't worry about RAM usage. Android handles RAM differently than Windows. It's normal, desirable behavior for RAM to run around 75-85% full, maybe even a little higher. Let Android handle things as intended. It will automatically optimize operation if you let it.

For more information on how Android handles multitasking, processes, RAM, etc automatically for you read this post by one of the authors of Android:

After disabling all of the apps and bloatware that I find unnecessary and installing all of my daily and must have applications. My N5 has an average of 49% or 1.9GB of free Ram when I have nothing running in the background.

I usually have just over 1 to 1.5gb of RAM available during my regular use. No issues with RAM on my N5 versus my previous S6.

Ok, now I see it...
0.95 GB with several apps plus live wallpaper running
1.65 GB with apps and live wallpaper closed and phone restarted.
