Ratio

A comparison of two quantities, showing their relative sizes. It is expressed using a colon (:) or as a fraction.

Proportion

An equation stating that two ratios are equal. It means that the two quantities are in the same relative proportions.

Study Notes

Introduction to Mathematics

  • The main topic of the text appears to be a general overview of mathematics, covering various concepts.

Ratio and Proportion

  • A ratio a : b is given, where a = 2 and b = 5.
  • To find the value of 3a + 2b, substitute the values: 3(2) + 2(5) = 16.

Percentages

  • To find the percentage increase, first, find the difference: 100 - 80 = 20.
  • Then, divide the difference by the original value and multiply by 100: (20 ÷ 80) × 100 = 25%.

Simple Interest

  • The formula for finding simple interest is not explicitly mentioned in the text, but it is typically given as: Simple Interest (SI) = (Principal × Rate × Time) / 100.
