Exploring Ratios by Making Batches
In this lesson, we
• created ratios by making batches of quantities in a given ratio.
• used tape diagrams to determine unknown quantities in ratios.
Examples
1. One batch of Lacy’s fruit salad has 4 peaches and 3 kiwis.
Number of Peaches Number of Kiwis
a. Draw a tape diagram to represent the ratio of the number of peaches to the number of kiwis
in 1 batch of Lacy’s fruit salad.
Number of Peaches
Number of Kiwis
b. Draw a tape diagram to represent the ratio of the number of peaches to the number of kiwis
in 2 batches of Lacy’s fruit salad.
Number of Peaches
Number of Kiwis
Because there are 2 batches of fruit
salad, another way to represent this
situation is to draw one tape diagram
and give each unit a value of 2.
Number of Peaches 2 2 2 2
Number of Kiwis 2 2 2

c. How many peaches and how many kiwis are in 2 batches of Lacy’s fruit salad?
There are 8 peaches and 6 kiwis in 2 batches of Lacy’s fruit salad.
Because 1 batch of Lacy’s fruit salad has
4 peaches and 3 kiwis, 2 batches of her
fruit salad have 8 peaches and 6 kiwis.
d. How does the total number of peaches change every time Lacy makes an additional batch
of fruit salad? How does the total number of kiwis change?
The total number of peaches increases by 4 and the total number of kiwis increases
by 3 every time Lacy makes an additional batch of fruit salad.
e. If Lacy uses 9 kiwis in the fruit salad, how many peaches does she need? Draw a tape
diagram to show your thinking.
Lacy needs 12 peaches.
Number of Peaches
Number of Kiwis
One batch of Lacy’s fruit salad has
4 peaches and 3 kiwis. Three batches
of her fruit salad have 9 kiwis. Creating
three fruit salad tape diagrams shows
that there are 12 peaches.
