Ratios and Proportions
Ratios from Tables
Rates and Unit RatesWhen working with rates:
ALWAYS ASK: Can I EASILY multiply/divide to get to my new number?
Yes? WOOHOO! Do it. Multiply or divide. No? Find the UNIT RATE FIRST. Then find the new rate.
Unit Rates to Find the Better DealTo find unit rate or not? That is the question!
Set up the proportion. Ask yourself this question: Can I easily multiply or divide the original number to get to the new number? If you can...do it! If you can't, find the unit rate FIRST. | ||||||
