What does it mean for two quantities to be in proportion?

Back

Two quantities are in proportion if they have a constant ratio, meaning that as one quantity changes, the other changes at the same rate.

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

Back

To find a missing value in a ratio table, you can set up a proportion using the known values and solve for the unknown.

Front

What is a unit rate?

Back

A unit rate is a ratio that compares a quantity to one unit of another quantity, often expressed as 'x per 1 unit'.

If a table shows a 1:2 ratio, what does that mean?

Back

A 1:2 ratio means that for every 1 unit of the first quantity, there are 2 units of the second quantity.

Front

How do you calculate the unit rate from a total?

Back

To calculate the unit rate, divide the total quantity by the number of units. For example, if you have 408 words in 4 minutes, divide 408 by 4 to get 102 words per minute.

Front

What is the value of B if the ratio table shows A=28 and the ratio is 1:2?

Back

If A=28 and the ratio is 1:2, then B would be 56.

Front

What does it mean if a table does not form a proportional relationship?

Back

If a table does not form a proportional relationship, it means that the ratios of the quantities are not constant.

Front

What is the first step to solve a problem involving unit rates?

Back

The first step is to identify the total quantity and the time or unit over which it is measured.
