Exploring Equivalent Ratios

The video tutorial explains how to identify equivalent ratios by multiplying or dividing the terms of a ratio by the same number. It provides examples using the ratios 7 to 6 and 16 to 12, demonstrating the process of finding equivalent ratios and highlighting the importance of maintaining the order of terms. The tutorial also discusses why certain ratios are not equivalent by showing calculations that involve different multipliers or divisors.

What is the key concept to understand when finding equivalent ratios?

• Subtracting the same number from both parts of the ratio

• Adding the same number to both parts of the ratio

• Multiplying or dividing both parts of the ratio by the same number

• Changing the order of the elements in the ratio
