Homework - September 26th - Ratios

Today we learned about ratios in class. Ratios are a comparison between two (or more) quantities. For example, if I wanted to write the ratio of the number of shoes I have to the number of sneakers I have, I would write the ratio 5:2, because I own 5 pairs of shoes and 2 pairs of sneakers. There are two other ways we can represent ratios. We  can also write ratios as a fraction (5/2), or we can just write it out (5 to 2).

We can also represent ratios using a drawing. We call this a Tape Diagram.
