Study Notes

Ratio and its Types

A ratio is a comparison of two quantities of the same kind.
It shows how many times one quantity is larger or smaller than another.
Ratios are expressed using the symbol ":" or the word "to."
Example: The ratio of 3 apples to 5 oranges can be written as 3:5 or 3 to 5.

Different Types of Ratios

Part-to-part ratio: Compares one part of a whole to another part.
- Example: In a class of students, the ratio of boys to girls is 2:3. This means for every 2 boys, there are 3 girls.
Part-to-whole ratio: Compares one part of a whole to the entire whole.
- Example: If there are 5 students in a class, and 2 are boys, the ratio of boys to the total students is 2:5.

Equal Ratios

Equal ratios are ratios that represent the same relationship between quantities, even though the numbers may be different.
To find an equal ratio, multiply or divide both quantities of a given ratio by the same number.
Example: The ratios 2:3, 4:6, and 6:9 are all equal ratios.

Simplifying Ratios

To simplify a ratio, reduce the numbers in the ratio to their lowest terms by dividing both numbers by their greatest common divisor (GCD).
Example: The ratio 6:9 can be simplified to 2:3 by dividing both numbers by 3.

Proportion

A proportion is an equation that states that two ratios are equal.
Example: 2/3 = 4/6 is a proportion.

Steps to work with proportions

Identify the given values in the problem.
Write a proportion by equating the given ratios.
Cross-multiply the terms to solve for the unknown variable.

Comparing Quantities

Ratios can be used to compare the relative sizes of different quantities.
They provide a standardized way to express comparisons.
Example: Comparing costs of different items or comparing the number of students in two different classes.

Using Ratios in Real Life

Cooking recipes (e.g., ratio of flour to water)
Scaling drawings
Mixing paint colours
Calculating percentages
Maps and scale drawings

Applications of Ratios

Ratios are fundamental in various mathematical and real-world applications. They are used in:

Scale Drawings: To represent larger or smaller objects accurately.
Maps: To show distances and proportions between locations.
Recipes: To determine the correct proportions of ingredients when scaling a recipe up or down.
Unit Conversions: To understand the relationship between different units of measurement (e.g., converting inches to centimeters).
Proportions: Comparing different values in mathematical statements, such as solving for an unknown value in a scenario involving proportional relationships.

Key Concepts

Understanding the definitions of ratios, part-to-part, and part-to-whole is essential.
Simplifying ratios to their lowest terms ensures accuracy and clarity.
Solving proportions is an important skill with wide applications.
Ratio and proportion concepts can be utilized to compare, solve, or deduce unknown quantities in various applications.
