Dec 13-17

Ratios, rates, and proportions.....still working with fractions, aren't we!!  The added bonus is being able to use your calculators to calculate the unit rates and figure the missing part in a proportion.

The easiest thing to remember when solving proportions: 
     Find the pair and multiply, divide by the lonely guy!

Write the ratios out in words first - that helps get numbers in the correct position and shows you how the label will be written.

Always make sure you label your answers!
