    Ratios

    • A ratio is a comparison between two or more quantities.
    • Ratios can be represented with diagrams or words.

    • The ratio of cups of soda water to cups of juice is 4 to 6.
    • There are 3 cups of juice for every 2 cups of soda water.
    • Equivalent ratios have the same relationship between their parts.

    Representing Equivalent Ratios

    • Double number line diagrams visually represent equivalent ratios.
    • Tables organize equivalent ratios for easy understanding.
    • If the price for 5 tickets is $6, you can use a double number line or a table to find the price of 10 tickets, 15 tickets, and so on.

    Solving Ratio and Rate Problems

    • Tables are efficient for solving problems involving large quantities.
    • A table can be used in problems such as finding the total number of tickets for a certain amount of money or finding the number of tickets for a specific price.
    • If 5 raffle tickets cost $6, 15 tickets cost $18.
