Ratios

LI: To identify and simplify ratios.

A ratio is a comparision of the amount of two things or more. Mr. Wongs maths group were learning what ratios were. You can identify a ratio by it having a colon which represents the word to or a fraction. We also learnt how to simplify ratios. For example: If I have 8 : 8, they are both the same number so we just say 1 : 1 because to get eight you just have to multiply by 1. So, any ratio that has the same amount or number you can just simplify it. We had to make a DLO based on the tutorial we had of ratios. Spelman and I worked together to complete this slide presentation of eight questions based on ratio word problems. I enjoyed making the ratio word problems slide.
