Ratios, Proportions, and Percents

Definition

Ratios with fractions compare two quantities where one or both of the quantities are fractions.

Description

Ratios with fractions are essential in various mathematical and real-world contexts, such as cooking, where ingredients are often measured in fractions. Understanding these ratios allows for accurate scaling of recipes or other measurements. For example, if a recipe calls for 1/2 cup of sugar to 1/4 cup of butter, the ratio is 1/2:1/4, which simplifies to 2:1 by multiplying both terms by 4.
