Ratio, Rates, & Proportions
Ratios• A ratio is a comparison of two numbers.
o Example: Tamara has 2 dogs and 8 fish. The ratio of dogs to fish can be written in three different ways.
*** Be careful with the fraction ratios – they don’t always have identical meanings to other fractions***
• There are two different types of ratioso .Part-to-Part Ratios
Example: Tamara’s dogs to cats is 2 to 8 or 1 to 4
o .Part –to-Whole Ratios Example: Tamara’s dogs to total pets is
2 to 10 or 1 to 5
Try the following Apples to bananas
• There are 12 apples and 3 bananas
• So the ratio of apples to bananas is
4:1, 4 to 1, OR
Oranges to apples
• There are 15 oranges and 12 apples
• So the ratio of oranges to apples is
5:4, 5 to 4, OR

4. all flowers to roses
A large bouquet of flowers is made up of 18 roses, 16 daisies, and 24 irises. Write each ratio in all three forms in simplest form. Identify which ratios are part-to-part and which ratios are part-to-whole.
18 to 243 to 4
58 to 829 to 9
16 to 188 to 9
24 to 163 to 2
• The ratio is comparing two number. If you changed it to a mixed number it would no longer be a comparison. This is why fraction ratios are tricky

is not written as a mixed number:
Comparing Ratios• Compare ratios by writing in simplest form
oAre these ratios equivalent?250 Kit Kats to 4 M&M’s and 500 Kit Kats to 8 M&M’s
o 12 out of 20 doctors agree and 12 out of 30 doctors agree

Rates• A rate is a ratio that compares two different
quantities or measurements.
• Rates can be simplified
• Rates us the words per and foro Example: Driving 55 miles per hour
o Example: 3 tickets for $1
Unit Rates• A unit rate is a rate per one unit. In unit
rate the denominator is always one.o Example: Miguel types 180 words in 4 min.
How many words can he type per minute?
= or words per
minute
rate unit rate word form
45 45
. 1
• Unit rates make it easier to make comparisons.o Example: Taylor can type 215 words in 5 min
How many words can he type per minute?
Who is the faster typist? How much faster? Taylor is 2wpm faster than Miguel

•.Complex fractions are fractions that have fractions within them. They are either in the numerator, denominator, or both.
•Divide complex fractions by multiplying (keep, change, change)
1. Mary is making pillows for her Life Skills class. She bought yards of fabric. Her total cost was $16. What was the cost per yard?
3. Doug entered a canoe race. He rowed miles in hour. What is
his average speed?
3. Mrs. Robare is making costumes for the school play. Each costume requires 0.75 yards of fabric. She bought 6 yards of fabric. How many costumes can Mrs. Robare make?

Comparing Unit RatesDario has two options for buying boxes of pasta. At CornerMarket he can buy seven boxes of pasta for $6. At SuperFoodz he can buy six boxes of
pasta for $5.• He divided 7 by 6 and got 1.166666667 at CornerMarket.
He then divided 6 by 7 and got 0.85714286. He was confused. What do these numbers tell him about the price of boxes of pasta at CornerMarket?
• Decide which makes more sense to you
• Compare the two stores’ prices. Which store offers the better deal?
1.166667 is the number of boxes you can get for $10.85714286 is the price per box
Price per box
CM - $0.86 per box SF - $0.83 per box
Proportions
• Two quantities are proportional if they have a constant ratio or unit rate.
• You can determine proportionality by comparing ratios o Andrew earns $18 per hour for mowing lawns. Is the amount he
earns proportional to the number of hours he spends mowing?• Make a table to show these amounts
• For each number of hours worked, write the relationship of the amount he earned and hour as a ratio in simplest form.
• Are all the rates equivalent?
Earnings ($) 18 36 54 72Time (h) 1 2 3 4
Since each rate simplifies to 18, they are all equivalent. This means the amount of money Andrew earns is proportional to the number of hours
he spends mowing.
o Uptown Tickets charges $7 per baseball game ticket plus $2 processing fee per order. Is the cost of an order proportional to the number of tickets ordered?
• Make a table to show these amounts
• For each number of tickets, write the relationship of the cost of the and the number of tickets ordered.
• Are all the rates equivalent?
Cost ($) 10 17 24 31Tickets Ordered 1 2 3 4
The rates are not equivalent. This means the total cost of the tickets is not proportional to the number of tickets sold.
o Use the recipe to make fruit punch. Is the amount of sugar used proportional to the amount of mix used? Explain.
•Yes, they all reduce to ½
o In July, a paleontologist found 368 fossils at a dig. In August, she found about 14 fossils per day.
•Is the number of fossils the paleontologist found in August proportional to the number of days she spent looking for fossils that month?
No, July average 11.87 fossils per day

Solving Proportions
• A proportion is two equivalent ratios
• When solving proportions we must first ask ourselves – “What are we comparingA lemonade recipe calls for ½ cup of mix for every quart of water. If Jeff
wanted to make a gallon of lemonade, is 2 cups of mix proportional for this recipe?
YES

• Proportionality can also be determined between two ratios by simplifying or comparing their cross products
• If they reduce to the same ratio, or their cross products are the same, then they are proportional
• You can also solve proportions for a missing variable by cross multiplying.o Example: Determine if the two ratios are proportional:

Steps for Graphing
1. Draw and label the x and y axis – don’t forget your arrows
2. Make a table of values to represent the problem. Be sure to include the values: 0, 1, and 2
3. Graph your order pairs- you need at least 3 points to make a line
4. Draw a line through the points – don’t forget your arrows
5. If the line is straight and goes through the origin, then the quantities are proportional
Example: The slowest mammal on Earth is the tree sloth. It moves at a speed of 6 feet per minute. Determine whether the number of feet the sloth moves is proportional to the number of minutes it moves by graphing. Explain your reasoning.

• The sign of the slope tells you whether the line is positive or negative.
• You can find slope of a line by comparing any two points on that line

Proportional Relationships
• A proportional relationship between two quantities is one in which the two quantities vary directly with one another (change the same way). This is called a direct variation.
• For graphs, the rate of change (slope) is constant ( a straight line)
