  2. Obj: To write a ratio of two quantities in simplest form A ratio is a comparison of two quantities that have the same units. A ratio can be written in three different ways • As a fraction • As two numbers separated by a colon • As two numbers separated by the word to

  3. Obj: To write a ratio of two quantities in simplest form Write the comparison 20 pounds to 24 pounds as a ratio in simplest form using a fraction, a colon and the word, to. 20 pounds 24 pounds 5 6 = = 5:6 = 5 to 6

  4. Obj: To solve application problems involving ratios A company spends $20,000 a month on television advertising and $15,000 a month on radio advertising.

  6. Obj: To write unit rates A unit rate is a rate in which the number in the denominator is 1 • to find a unit rate, divide the numerator of the rate by the denominator of the rate Example: Write 260 miles in 8 hours as a unit rate 3 2 .5 260 miles 8 hours = 32.5 miles/hour 8 260 .0 24 2 0 16 4 0 40
