  1. Section 8.1Ratio and Proportion OBJECTIVE: To write ratios and solve proportions BIG IDEA: Proportionality ESSENTIAL UNDERSTANDINGS: A ratio can be written to compare two quantities An equation can be written stating that two ratios are equal If the equation contains a variable, it can be solved to find the value of the variable MATHEMATICAL PRACTICE: Attend to precision

  2. Ratio of a to b: a ____________________ of two quantities by division.
