rates to compare quantities?

Name:Period:Date:

A ratio is the comparison of two numbers written as a fraction.

For example: Your school’s basketball team has won 7 games and lost 3 games. What is the ratio of wins to losses?

Because we are comparing wins to losses the first number in our ratio should be the number of wins and the second number is the number of losses.

The ratio is games won _________

games lost=

7 games _______ 3 games

=7__

1) You are shopping for T-shirts. Which store offers the best deals?

Store A: $25 for 2 shirtsStore B: $45 for 4 shirtsStore C: $30 for 3 shirts

2) Which is the better buy? Deal #1: $3.29 for 6 Bagels Deal #2: $4.15 for 8 Bagels

Could we apply this concept?

In a ratio, if the numerator and denominator are measured in different units then the ratio is called a rate.

A unit rate is a rate per one given unit, like 60 miles per 1 hour.

Example: You can travel 120 miles on 60 gallons of gas. What is your fuel efficiency in miles per gallon?

Rate = 120 miles________60 gallons= ________2 miles

1 gallon

Your fuel efficiency is 2 miles per gallon.

RATES

A rate is a ratio that compares quantities that

are measured in different units.

This spaceship travels at a certain speed. Speed is an example of a rate.

Speed can be measured in many different ways. This spaceship can travel

100 miles in 5 seconds. 100 miles in 5 seconds is a rate.

RATES



Rates are often written in fraction form.100 miles in 5 seconds is a rate.It can be written as…..

5

100 Miles

Seconds

RATES



One key word that often identifies a rate is PER.Miles per gallon, Points per free throw,Dollars per pizza, Sticks of gum per pack
