Standard • AF 2.2:Demonstrate an understanding that rate is a measure of one quantity per unit value of another quantity.

Vocabulary • A ratio is a comparison between two numbers by division. • It can be written in three different ways: 5 to 2 5 : 2 5 2
Vocabulary • A rate is a ratio that compares two quantities measured in different units. • The unit rate is the rate for one unit of a given quantity. Unit rates have a denominator of 1.

Equal Ratios • When two ratios name the same number, they are equal. It’s like writing an equivalent fraction. 20 : 30 Equal Ratios: 80 : 120 2 : 3 10 : 15
Ratios in Simplest Form • Ratios can be written in simplest form. • Divide both terms in the ratio by their GCF. Example: 12 to 8 3 to 2
Using Unit Rates • You can find the missing terms of equal ratios. • Use the unit rate, and set it equal to another ratio. • Solve for what is missing by dividing or multiplying.
Examples 150 heartbeats Rate: 2 minutes Unit Rate: 75 heartbeats per minute
Find the Unit Rate Amy can read 88 pages in 4 hours. What is the unit rate? (How many pages can she read per hour?) 88 pages 22 pages / hour 4 hours
Example Joe’s car goes 25 miles per gallon of gasoline. How far can it go on 8 gallons of gasoline? x 8 25 miles = Unit Rate 8 gallons 1 gallon x 8 25 x 8 = 200. Joe’s car can go 200 miles on 8 gallons of gas.
Comparing Unit Prices • Use division to find the unit prices of the two products in question. • The unit rate that is smaller (costs less) is the better value.
Example Juice is sold in two different sizes. A 48-fluid ounce bottle costs $2.07. A 32-fluid ounce bottle costs $1.64. Which is the better buy? $2.07 $0.04 per fl.oz. 0.043125 48 fl.oz. $1.64 $0.05 per fl.oz. 0.05125 32 fl.oz. The 48 fl.oz. bottle is the better value.
