A ratio can be written in three different forms. Problem of the Day The distance from one base to the next on a softball diamond is 55 feet. The distance from one base to the next on a baseball diamond is 90 ft. Write a ratio that compares base-to-base distances on a softball diamond with base-to-base distances on a baseball diamond.

  4. KEY CONCEPT Equivalent Ratios Equivalent Ratios have the same value. To find equivalent ratios, multiply or divideBOTH terms by the same nonzero number. Multiply to form equivalent ratios Divide to form equivalent ratios Think EQUIVALENT FRACTIONS!!!

  5. Write three equivalent ratios for each.

  6. Like a fraction, a ratio can be written in simplest form by dividing both terms by the GCF.

  7. Write each ratio in simplest form.

  8. Write each ratio in simplest form.
