What is ratio?
RATIO
~ a relation between two
numbers or two
magnitudes of the same
kind.
Ex. There are twice as many
married employees as single
employees. Find the ratio of
married employees to single
employees.
~ 2:1
2 WAYS OF FINDING THE
RATIO
a. DIVISION OR FRACTION
ex. There are 2O boys and 30 girls ,
find the ratio of girls to boys.
30 3
~ 20 3:2

2 WAYS OF FINDING THE
RATIO
b. COMPARING NUMERATORS OF
FRACTIONS WITH THE SAME DENOMINATOR
ex. If we have a total of 100 t-shirts of 30
small-sized, 50 medium-sized, and 20
large-sized. Find the ratio of small to
medium to large.
2 WAYS OF FINDING THE
RATIO
~ small 30 3
100 10
~ medium 50 5 ratio ~ 3 : 5 : 2
100 10
~ large

PROPORTION
~ refers to the equality
between ratios. The product of
extremes the means
should be equal
ex. 1: 2 = 8: 16 to the product of
the extremes
means
PROPORTION
ex. 9 63 Cross
multiplication:
The product of
7 49 the means
should be equal
means
to the product of
extremes the extremes
3 TYPES OF
PROPORTION
[Link] Proportion ~ when two values
will either increase or decrease
together.
ex. If three notebooks cost P15, how many
notebooks can you buy with P60?
3 x 180
a) c) x
15 60 15
b)15 x 3(60) d ) x 12notebooks
3 TYPES OF PROPORTION
b. Indirect/Inverse Proportion ~ when one quantity
increases the other quantity decreases.
ex. If it takes 3 people to do a work in 1 month, how
long will it take 6 people to do the same work?
3 x 3
a) c) x
6 1 6
1
b)6 x 3 d ) x month

3 TYPES OF PROPORTION
c. Partitive Proportion ~ a whole divided into parts
ex. When a partnership agreement stipulates an
agreed capitalization of P100 000 and the partners
X,Y and Z are to divide the said capitalization in the
ratio 1:2:2 respectively, how much will each of
them contribute?
1
X ~ x100000 P 20000
