That's a lot like asking "How do you do a bicycle ?"
Probably the most important step ... the one that must always be done first, and
the one that you haven't completed yet ... is to be sure you know and understand
exactly what it is that you need to 'do' with the ratios or proportions that are being
discussed.

A ratio is a comparison of two quantities. When the second term of a ratio is 100, it means that the ratio is comparing the first term to 100. For example, if the ratio is 1:100, it means the first term is 1 and the second term is 100. Ratios with a second term of 100 are often used to express proportions or percentages.
Divide by the number of parts in the ratio. Imagine sharing sweets between person A and person B in the ratio 2:3. As a proportion Person A would receive 2/5ths (40%) of the sweets and B would receive 3/5ths (60%) of the sweets.
Joy and her brother bought a new TV set worth P8 289.00. If they agreed to divide the cost in the ratio 5:4, how much will each of them pay?
Graphing proportions is to take two ratios and plot them on an (x,y) coordinate plane. You need to be consistent with your labeling. If you use the numerator of one ratio as your x coordinate, then the numerator of the other ratio must be the 2nd x coordinate. You can graph as many of these points as are given. If your ratio's are proportional then you will have a straight line. If it is not a straight line when graphed your ratios are not proportional.
