If you are given a ratio, r , then r = x/y ( If the ratio is given as x : y, or x to y
think of it as x/y . Also remember the r% means r/100 if the ratio is given as a percentage. )
Therefore by basic algebra, x = ry and y = x/r .
So you find either number from the other, given the ration.
Example The ratio of boys to girls in a physics class is 8 to 2. There are 4 girls.
How many boys are in the class?
b/g = 8/2 so b/4 = 8/2 and b = 4(8/2) = 16 boys in the class.
The ratio of a single number is the number itself.
You do not use a number line to find a ratio
A ratio is a property of two or more numbers. It is not possible to find the ratio of a single number.
The ratio of neutrons to protons in an atom can be calculated by subtracting the atomic number (number of protons) from the atomic mass (sum of protons and neutrons) of the atom. Mathematically, ratio of neutrons to protons = (Atomic mass - Atomic number).
Divide one number by the other number.
There's no such thing as the ratio of only one number. A ratio is a comparison of two numbers. The ratio of two numbers is their 'quotient' ... the number you get when you divide one number by the other one.
Find an equivalent ratio to 32:24 such that tje first number in the ratio is 4
The golden ratio is a number that exists in anatomy, art, and the sciences. The estimated number is 1.61803399. To find the ratio, you find: (1 + squaroot(5))/2
To find a ratio, you need to compare two numbers. Since you have only given one number, it is impossible to find a ratio.
In order to find the ratio of two areas, you times it by the number of a number to get the number of the numbers numbers number, and that number divide by the first number which is 6 and then do the square root of the numbers number to get that number, which you will times by 2.
