Comparison of two numbers by division?
The comparison of two numbers by division is called a ratio. For example, the fraction 3 over 2 can also be expressed as a 3 to 2 ratio.
Why is division used to compare two numbers in a ratio?
Division is used to simplify the ratio (reduce it, put it into simplest terms). This gives you a direct (and usually small) perspective of the ratio, so can visualize it easier and understand it better.
Are two ratios proportions?
no, a ratio is like, eg.if you but one blueberry in your bowl, and two starwberrys, the ratio would be 1 to 2/ 1:2.you could ask your math teacher. :PNew Answer : Two ratios are proportional in mathematics if they can both be reduced to the same value by division Proportion is an equality of ratios, and ratio is a relationship between two numbers which can be defined as the division of one number by the other. The ratio 4/2 and 16/8 are in proportion because they both can be reduced to 2 by division. They may be written as 4:2::16:8, which is read as '4 is to 2 as 16 is to 8'.
What is the common ratio for the following sequence 648 - 108 - 18 - 3?
The "common ratio" of a geometric series is any of the numbers, divided by the previous number.If in all cases you get the same ratio (the same result of a division), then you have a common ratio. If the division gives you different numbers, then there is no common ratio.
Does a ratio indicate division?
A ratio can indicate division. If you have a ratio, x:y, then it can be thought of as x/y.

When you enlarge an image of the original image do the angles stay the same?
As long as you maintain the aspect ratio (width : height), yes - all angles in the image remain the same. The reason comes from the way an angle is computed in a rectangular coordinate system - it comes in the very end to the division of two segments. Their length change, but since the division factors out the enlarging factor the ratio remain the same.
