1 4-1 Ratios to Rates

2 Ratio a comparison of two quantities by division 5 : 8 5 to 8 5/8

3 Rate a ratio that compares quantities measured in different units 5 seconds: 8 feet 5 miles to 8 gallons 5 snails / $8

4 Unit Rate is the rate for one unit of a given quantity 5 miles: 1 second 5 gallons of water to 1 gallon of lemon juice $5 / 1 snail

5 Ch. 4-1 Ratios and Rates Example 1: Write a ratio for the following below by using the hearts and stars. a.) hearts to stars b.) stars to all figuresc.) all figures to hearts 4 : 33 : 77 : 4

6 Example 2: Write each ratio in simplest form. a.) 50 m. : 30 m. b.) 16 cm. : 8 cm. c.) 32 in. : 4 in. 5 m. : 3 m.2 cm. : 1 cm.8 in. : 1 in. Example 3: Find each unit rate below. a.) A team finished the 200 lap Indiana Little race in about 2.07 hours. Find the unit rate of laps per hour. b.) Find the unit rate for 52 deliveries in 8 hours. Laps per hour Deliveries per hour

7 Example 4: Find the unit cost for each bottle. Which size is the better buy? $2.99 for 64 oz.$1.59 for 12 oz. = $.05/oz. = $.13/oz. Therefore the 64 oz. bottle has the lowest unit cost and is the better buy. You try one: Which is the better buy: a 20 oz box of cereal for $4.29 or a 12 oz. box of the same cereal for $3.59? The 20 oz. box http://my.hrw.com/math06_07/nsmedia/homework_help/msm2/msm2_ch05_01_homewo rkhelp.html

Find the unit price of 6 stamps for $2.22. 3. Find the unit rate of 8 heartbeats in 6 seconds. 4. What is the better buy, a half dozen carnations for $4.75 or a dozen for $9.24? 5. Which is the better buy, four pens for $5.16 or a ten-pack for $12.90? $0.37 per stamp 3:1  1.3 beats/s a dozen They cost the same.
