give the meaning and answer of kinds of fraction percent ratio proportion decimals inverse comparing ratios converting rartios rate
A rate compares two different units. Ex. 1 mile / 1 hour A ratio compares two of the same units. Ex. 1 mile / 2 miles
It is often a ratio.
No. It can be but need not be. For example, you might calculate the ratio of today's temperature in Celsius and in Fahrenheit and calculate the ratio. That is not a rate.
1. Take a ratio like 5:3 2. add the numbers together 5+3=8 3. then put the sum (8), under the number your looking for (5) 4. then you have the rate 5/8 (A rate is the same as a fraction)
they are the same because it is the same

yes because a ratio is a rate so a rate would have to be a ratio

A proportional rate is a rate that remains constant in relation to another variable. This means that as one quantity increases or decreases, the proportional rate stays the same. It is typically expressed as a ratio or percentage.

A percent is a ratio, or rate, that compares a number to100

The relation which one quantity or magnitude has to another of the same kind. It is expressed by the quotient of the division of the first by the second; thus, the ratio of 3 to 6 is expressed by / or /; of a to b by a/b; or (less commonly) the second term is made the dividend; as, a:b = b/a., Hence, fixed relation of number, quantity, or degree; rate; proportion; as, the ratio of representation in Congress.
