The video tutorial from Moomoomath explains equivalent ratios, which show the same comparison between two values and can be used to find missing values. The tutorial provides three examples: calculating the distance a car travels in a given time, determining the time a runner takes to cover a certain distance, and finding the number of males in a class based on the number of females. Each example uses a box method to solve the problem, emphasizing the importance of maintaining the ratio by performing the same operation on both sides.

What is the primary purpose of equivalent ratios?

• To determine the average of a set of numbers

• To find the sum of two numbers

• To compare two different values

• To solve algebraic equations
