5 and part to part, part to whole versions of ratios Part to Part Ratio a ratio that compares part of the whole to another part of the whole. Part to Whole a ratio that compares part of the whole to the whole. 8
5 Write Equivalent ratios The ratio of triangles to squares is 4:3. That means, for every 4 triangles, there are 3 squares. equivalent ratios. The ratio of triangles to squares is 8:6. There are still 3 squares for every 4 triangles. The ratios 8:6 and 4:3 are equivalent ratios. Equivalent ratios are equal. 8:6 = 4:3 An equivalent ratio can be formed by multiplying or dividing the terms of a ratio by the same number 1 2 4 8 12 16 20 3 9

Carey spread 150g over 6.5m 2. Is this more than, equal to, or less than the recommended seeding? How do you know? 14
5 Use Comparing different strategies to compare ratios. a) Write each part to part ratio as a part to whole ratio. b) Write each part to whole ratio in fraction form. c) Write each part to whole ration as a percent. 2:3 4:3 15
5 Use Comparing different strategies to compare ratios. A contractor bought 2 shades of yellow paint for his clients. Shade 1 is made by mixing 5 cans of yellow paint with 3 cans of white paint. Shade 2 is made by mixing 7 cans of yellow paint with 4 cans of white paint. The clients should choose a lighter shade. Which shade should they choose? Step 1: Write the ratio of yellow paint to cans of white paint for each shade. Step 2: Write part to whole ratios for the number of cans of yellow paint to the total number of cans. Step 3: Write each part to whole ratio as a fraction. Step 4: Write each fraction as a percent. Step 5: Answer the question in a sentence. 16

5 Solving Ratio Problems In a recycle drive last week at Emerald Ridge, the grade 8's collected bottles and recycled some of them. The ratio of bottles recycled to bottles collected was 3:4. This week, the grade 8's collected 24 bottles. Miss Selinger told the students that the ratio of bottles recycled to bottles collected is the same as the ratio the preceding week. How can the students find how many bottles are recycled this week? 19
