Exploring Ratio Tables for 6th Grade Mathematics

This video tutorial covers the use of ratio tables to solve various problems involving equivalent ratios. It includes practical examples such as mixing yellow icing, calculating hot dogs eaten, determining IV fluid time, and more. The tutorial also explains scaling and finding the greatest common factor (GCF) to solve problems like cost calculation and height conversion.
