Learning Objective

I can explain what a ratio is and give examples of ratios.

  • 1

    A ratio compares two or more quantities or numbers and shows the relationship between them.

  • 2

    Ratios can be written using a colon, in fractional form, or using the word to.

  • 3

    When writing ratios, order is very important; for example, a ratio of bananas to pineapples is not the same as pineapples to bananas.
