Ratios and rates are mathematical derivations. A ratio is an index comparing fractionally indexing multiple quantities vis-Ã -vis one other. A 1 to 1 (1:1) ration of milk to water would mean equal quantities of each. A rate is a measure of quantity over time. Rates can include speed and the volume of fluid movement.
Rates are ratios that are renamed so that one of the numbers is 1. It is usually the denominator of the original ratio.

No! they are not the same. Ratios are things being compared (part to part) and rates are timing (25words/min). !HOPES THIS HELPS!

equivalent.
To compare ratios, compare the products of the outer terms by the inner terms.
Proportions are useful in the real world for scaling, estimating, and comparing quantities. They allow us to make predictions and solve problems involving ratios of different amounts. For example, proportions are used in cooking recipes to scale ingredients, in finance to calculate interest rates, and in design to maintain balance and harmony.
