Part 1:

Ratio

three-term ratio- compares three quantities measured in the same units.
part to part ratio- compares different parts of a group to each other.
part to whole ratio- compares one part of a group to the whole group.
Example: apples to bananas, 7:20, red squares to total squares, 6:12

Rate
rate- compares two quantities in different units.
unit rate- a rate in which the second term is one.
unit price- a unit rate used when shopping.
Example: a person's heart can beat 64 beats/minute or a car can move 20 km/hr.

Proportion

proportion- a relationship that says that two ratios or two rates are equal.
Example: you can use proportion to find out what a dozen erasers cost if three erasers cost $0.75. 2/3 = 6/9

  1. Great job Kayla,Kim and Shane! I liked that you explained ratios and rates well. I also liked your examples and drawings. I also heard kayla say "Show it to the camera" to shane for the proportion paper, you shoul've rehearsed it a little first.

  2. Another amusing video. The audio wasn't the best quality, and it was a bit hard to hear. Although, I'm sure you did your best with the time you had, seeing as though we had only one class to work on it.
