How do you find a missing value in a ratio table?

Back

To find a missing value in a ratio table, you can use equivalent ratios or proportional reasoning to solve for the unknown.

Front

What is an equivalent ratio?

Back

An equivalent ratio is a ratio that expresses the same relationship between two quantities, even if the numbers are different.

If the ratio of A to B is 1:3, what is the value of B when A is 10?

Back

If A is 10, then B is 30, because the ratio 1:3 means for every 1 part of A, there are 3 parts of B.

Front

What is the value of A in the ratio table if the ratio is 2:5 and B is 25?

Back

If B is 25 in the ratio 2:5, then A is 10, because 2/5 = A/25.

Front

How can you use a ratio table to solve real-world problems?

Back

You can use a ratio table to set up relationships between quantities, making it easier to visualize and calculate unknown values.

Front

What is the purpose of using ratio tables in mathematics?

Back

The purpose of using ratio tables is to simplify the process of finding equivalent ratios and solving problems involving proportions.

Front

What is the relationship between ratios and fractions?

Back

Ratios can be expressed as fractions, where the first number is the numerator and the second number is the denominator.

Front

How do you determine if two ratios are equivalent?

Back

Two ratios are equivalent if their cross products are equal when set up as a proportion.

Front

What is the missing number in the ratio table if the ratio is 4:10 and the first value is 8?

Back

If the first value is 8 in the ratio 4:10, the missing number is 20, because 8/4 = 20/10.
