Part 5:
|
Ratio and Proportion |
Ratio
Ratio is a way of comparing two or more quantities.
For instance, if a garage sold red cars and blue cars in the ratio
4 : 3 (read 'four to three') then it means that for every 4 red cars
sold there were 3 blue cars sold.
In each case, the proportion of red cars to blue cars remains
the same, 4 : 3.
