If you know the ratio of students to teachers is 5 to 1 and you know there are 15 teachers, is there a way to figure out

the number of students?

Page 2: A ratio can have equivalent ratios just like a fraction can have equivalent fractions

In this lesson you will learn to solve for missing values in a

ratio problem by using multiplicative reasoning

Let’s Review

A ratio can have equivalent ratios just like a fraction can have equivalent

fractions.

Core Lesson

Andy has a ratio of books to DVDS of 3 : 2 in his room. If he has 15 books, how many

DVDs does he have?

How can I use the ratio to help set up

and solve?

Extension Activities

Create a flipbook with your own ratio problem and illustrations showing how to solve it using

multiplicative reasoning.

Extension ActivitiesAnnie bakes cookies and cupcakes in a ratio of 2 to 7 for her gift boxes. Her school needs 36 desserts to sell in a bake sale.

How many cupcakes will she bake?

How many cookies will she bake?

Create an illustration and a table to support your work. Explain the multiplicative reasoning used.
