Things to Learn

  • Restate a ratio in terms of its value; for example, if the ratio of length `A` to length `B` is `3:5` (in the same units).
  • State that length `A` is `3/5` of length `B`, length `B` is `5/3` of length `A`, length `A` is `3/8` of the total length, and length ‘B’ is ‘5/8’ of the total length.
  • Use the value of the ratio to problem-solve by writing and solving equations.
