That's "no more than one stop more than the subject light" getting back to the camera; and it's not going to be simply power setting related.
The easiest way to do it is to light the BG first and get the exposure set so that it's "white" (right edge of the histogram/starting to clip). Once that's done, place your subject an adequate distance away from the BG and light it/them for proper exposure (camera settings constant).
A stop of light is a factor of two (1/2 or 2x) for SS, ISO, and flash power.
A stop of light is *also* an EV (exposure value).
