Understanding Equivalent Ratios and Fractions

Mrs. Hazmer introduces a lesson on equivalent ratios for sixth-grade students. The lesson covers how to identify and simplify equivalent ratios using fractions. Students are guided through classwork exercises, including finding the value of ratios and analyzing a real-world scenario involving Tavonne's training for a duothon. The lesson emphasizes understanding the concept of equivalent ratios and their applications.

What is the main focus of today's lesson introduced by Mrs. Hazmer?

• Exploring geometric shapes

• Solving algebraic equations

• Understanding fractions

• Learning about equivalent ratios

How should students indicate the first set of equivalent ratios if they are working online?

• By circling them

• By putting a 'W' next to them

• By putting an 'X' next to them

• By highlighting them

What is the equivalent fraction for the ratio 5 to 10?

• 3/8

• 1/2

• 5/10

• 2/5

Which of the following ratios is equivalent to 6 to 16?

• 3/8

• 5/10

• 4/9

• 1/2

What is the reduced form of the ratio 12 to 32?

• 3/8

• 1/2

What is the equivalent ratio for Tavonne's training of running 4 miles for every 14 miles cycled?

• 1/3

• 2/7

• 3/8

• 4/9

Is the ratio of 80 to 280 consistent with Tavonne's training schedule?

• Yes, because it simplifies to 1 to 2

• No, because it simplifies to 3 to 8

• Yes, because it simplifies to 2 to 7

• No, because it simplifies to 4 to 9

In one training session, Tavonne ran 4 miles and cycled 7 miles. Is this an equivalent ratio to his training schedule?

• No, because it does not match the ratio 2 to 7

• Yes, because it matches the ratio 2 to 7

• No, because it does not match the ratio 3 to 8

• Yes, because it matches the ratio 3 to 8

What is the correct reduced form of the ratio 80 to 280?

• 4/9

• 3/8

• 2/7

• 1/3
