You need ratios to find out what scale to use.
Well, I know one career that uses proportions. Being a baker, for example scaling a recipe up and down depending on the number of guests you have.
Convert them to fractions.
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, andthe one that you haven't completed yet ... is to be sure you know and understandexactly what it is that you need to 'do' with the ratios or proportions that are beingdiscussed.
Related concepts to fractions include ratios, proportions, percents, decimals, probabilities, cents, division, inverses. Parts of fractions are numerator and denominator. Fractions greater than 1 are improper fractions or mixed numbers.

Ratios are very important part of mathematics. They teach us how to deal with proportions.
Ratios or fractions can be used to present proportions.

I'm sure they use ratios and proportions at many different points in the practice of their profession. One obvious application is in construction of exact scale models of aircraft and their components for wind-tunnel tests.
Ratios ARE numerical.
atoms combine in small, whole-number ratios to form compounds. This allows for different compounds to be formed by varying the ratios of elements involved. The law of multiple proportions states that when two elements form more than one compound, the mass ratios of the elements in one compound will be a simple whole-number ratio to the mass ratios in another compound.
You can use ratios, percentages, or fractions to measure proportions. These measures provide a way to compare the size or quantity of one part of a whole in relation to the entire amount.

The law of multiple proportions states that if two elements form more than one compound between them, then the ratios of the masses of the second element which combine with a fixed mass of the first element will be ratios of small whole numbers. Two examples of the law of multiple proportions are carbon monoxide, CO, and carbon dioxide, CO2, and water, H2O, and hydrogen peroxide, H2O2.
