yes, if the golden ratio is ((square root 5) +1)/2, then the silver ratio is (square root 2) +1. as the golden ratio is represented by phi, the silver ratio is represented by deltas. as two quantities are in the golden ratio if the ratio of the sum of the quantities to the larger quantity is equal to the ratio of the larger quantity to the smaller one, two quantities are in the silver ratio if the ratio between the sum of the smaller plus twice the larger of those quantities and the larger one is the same as the ratio between the larger one and the smaller.
It is a rate. For instance, if the quantities are 10 km and 2 hours, then the ratio (10 km)/(2 hours) = 10/2 km/hour = 5 km/h, which is a rate of speed.
Proportional
In science, the ratio of two quantities is the value of the first quantity divided by the value of the second one. For example, the ratio of 10m to 5m is 2.
Conversion factors is one name given to this device. 100oC = 212oF would be a specific example.+++ That does not give a ratio, because you can not give a ratio between different units unless one unit is a linear multiple of the other. The example above will not work because the link between ºC and ºF is not linear, and the conversion cannot give a ratio.+++++A better example would be 9°R/5K where °R is degrees Rankine and K is Kelvin12 inches/foot1760 yards/mile1000 m/km
ratio that compares 2 quantities measured in diiferent units

Proportional
There are many instances: for example, speed is measured in kilometres per hour where the ratio is measured between a distance (measured in kilometres) and time (measured in hours). So it is no big deal except that you need to mention the units.
Two quantities are in a Golden Ratio if the ratio of the bigger quantity to the smaller quantity is the same as the ratio of the sum of the two quantities to the bigger quantity. In algebraic form, if the two quantities are x and y, and x is the bigger of the two, then they are in the Golden Ratio if x/y = (x+y)/x and that ratio is the Golden Ratio. which equals (1 + √5)/2.
The golden ratio, or golden mean, or phi, is about 1.618033989. The golden ratio is the ratio of two quantities such that the ratio of the sum to the larger is the same as the ratio of the larger to the smaller. If the two quantities are a and b, their ratio is golden if a > b and (a+b)/a = a/b. This ratio is known as phi, with a value of about 1.618033989. Exactly, the ratio is (1 + square root(5))/2.
In science, the ratio of two quantities is the value of the first quantity divided by the value of the second one. For example, the ratio of 10m to 5m is 2.
A ratio is a comparison of two quantitiesHOLT CALIFORNIAMathematicsCourse 2: Pre-Algebra
A ratio is basically a comparison of two different quantities to each other.You often find ratios in their simplest form.For example, if, in one container, you had 500ml of water and in another you had 1000ml, this is a ration of 500 to 1000 which is written as 500:1000.However, to make this clearer, we can simplify the ratio.Seeing as 500 is half of 1000 we can simplify it to a ratio of 1:2 because 1 is obviously half as big as 2!A ratio, quite simply, compares the amount of something to another amount.So in this case, there is 500ml of water in one container for every 1000ml of water in the other container.Ratio is a mathematical comparison of the amount of something.Hope this helps!
A ratio is the quotient of two numbers or quantities giving their relative size. The ratio of x to y is written as x : y and is unchanged if both quantities are multiplied or divided by the same quantity. So 2 : 3 is the same as 6 : 9and 1 : 3/2.
An equivalent ratio to 1:5 can be found by multiplying both parts of the ratio by the same non-zero number. For example, multiplying 1 and 5 by 2 gives us the equivalent ratio of 2:10. This is equivalent because both ratios represent the same relationship between the two quantities, just expressed in different terms. In this case, 1 part to 5 parts is the same as 2 parts to 10 parts.
