Ratio, Rates and Proportion

Set up equivalent ratios or use a unit rate, keeping units explicit.

Key ideas

  • equivalent ratios
  • unit rates
  • speed
  • scale
  • best-buy problems

Worked example: $18 for 6 items = $3 per item.

Common trap: Lowest total price is not always lowest unit price.

Key words

ratio — multiplicative comparison
rate — comparison per different unit
unit rate — rate per one
scale factor — multiplicative size change
proportion — equal ratios
How to use this drill: review the short notes when learning, then close them on later attempts and practise from memory. The rotating bank delays a full set repeat for 30 attempts on the same browser.
