Example 1 BOOKS Several students were asked to name their favorite kind of book. Write the ratio that compares the number of students who chose fantasy books to the total number of students who responded. Five students preferred fantasy out of a total of or 25 responses.
Example 1 Answer: The ratio of the number of students who chose fantasy to the total number of responses is, 1 to 5, or 1:5. Analyzing the ratio tells us that one out of every 5 students preferred fantasy books. ÷5 The GCF of 5 and 25 is 5. fantasy responses total responses
1.A 2.B 3.C 4.D Example 1 SPORTS Students have the balls listed in the table available to use during recess. What is the ratio of basketballs to the total number of balls? A. B. C. D.
Example 2 CLOTHING Coco used 12 yards of fabric to make 9 blouses. Use the ratio table to find the number of blouses she could make with 20 yards of fabric. There is no whole number by which you can multiply 12 to get 20. So, scale back to 4 and then scale forward to 20.
Example 2 Divide each quantity by a common factor, 3. Then, since 4 × 5 = 20, multiply each quantity by 5. Answer: So, Coco could make 15 blouses with 20 yards of fabric.
