Section 1
Generating Equivalent Ratios
Property
To find a ratio equivalent to , multiply or divide both terms by the same non-zero number, .
In this Grade 6 Pengi Math lesson from Chapter 3: Ratios, Rates, and Percent, students learn how to generate equivalent ratios using multiplication and division and represent them in tables. The lesson explains why additive changes do not preserve ratios and teaches students to verify ratio equivalence using cross products.
