How can you use a ratio table to solve word problems?

Back

You can use a ratio table to break down the problem into manageable parts, allowing you to visualize the relationships between quantities and find missing values.

Front

What is the relationship between tenants and cars if the ratio is 3:5?

Back

For every 3 tenants, there are 5 cars, indicating that the number of cars increases as the number of tenants increases.

Front

How do you calculate the total number of cars if there are 30 tenants in a 3:5 ratio?

Back

To find the number of cars, set up the proportion: 3/5 = 30/x, where x is the number of cars. Solving gives x = 50 cars.

Front

What is the significance of equivalent ratios in ratio tables?

Back

Equivalent ratios allow you to compare different ratios and find missing values by maintaining the same relationship between quantities.

How can you express the calorie expenditure of Hilbert in a ratio format?

Back

Hilbert's calorie expenditure can be expressed as a ratio of calories burned to time, such as 120 calories per 30 minutes.
