The ratio of one number to another is-
-the quotient when the first number is divided by the second number. Usually in simplest form
Proportion
An equation stating that two ratios are equal
EX:
a/b = c/d and a:b = c:d
a is the first term, b is the second term, c is the third term, d is the forth term
Extremes
The first and last terms of a proportion
Means
The middle terms of a proportion
Means - Extremes Property
Cross multiplication
a/b = c/d is equivalent to-
-ad = bc
Properties of Proportions
Term for when you replace one proportion by an equivalent proportion
EX: a/b = c/d is equivalent to:
- ad = bc
- a/c = b/c
- b/a = d/c
- a+b/b = c+d/d
PRACTICE: a/b = 3/5.
5a=
3b
PRACTICE: a/b = 3/5.
5/b =
3/a
PRACTICE: a/b = 3/5.
a + b / b =
3 + 5/5 = 8/5
PRACTICE: a/b = 3/5.
5/3 =
b/a
