Students will be able to:
use ratios and rates to describe the relationship between two quantities.
find equivalent ratios and use unit rates to solve multi-step problems.
Equivalent ratios and unit rates can be used to compare ratios and solve problems.
You can use equivalent ratios and rates, including unit rates, to compare ratios and to solve problems.
[Diagram: divide both terms of 45.5/7 by 7 to obtain the equivalent unit rate 6.5/1.]
45.5/7 = 6.5/1
