U4: Ratio

Key Learning Points:

(This is just to reinforce what that was learnt back in your P5 Math) Ratios are similar to fractions. The only difference lies in the comparison of parts to parts whilst in fractions, it is always parts to a whole.
  • Always simplify your ratios (just like fractions).

  • In your workings, give a heading to your ratios so that you know which parts you are comparing against with.

  • When changing the ratios to equivalent ratios, make sure you either use the arrow sign or the equal sign.

  • Do not write 2 ratios 'floating' in your working statements. You must show how they are related.
