Diana's Proportion Post

Task 1: Definitions:
Ratio-
two-term ratio: compares two quantities measured in the same units
three-term ratio: compares three quantities measured in the same units.

part-to-part ratio: compares
different parts of a group to each other.
part-to-whole ratio: compares one part of a group to the whole group.

Rate- a comparisson of two auntities measured in different units.
EX. $1.69 per grams or $1.69/1
00g that is a rate for purchasing at bulk barn.

Proportion- an equation which states that two fractions are equal.h


Task 2:
Question 1) 5 hours to travel 360 miles is about 72 mph.

Question 2)As a playgroup worker, if I increase the amount of apple juice I am serving at the playgroup from 25 ml to 100 ml, how much should I increase the the orange juice to, to keep the quantities in the same proportion? The orange juice is 50 ml to start with.

Task 3:
What are the three ways you can prove that equivalent ratio statements are true?
3/4 = 12/16 or 4/9 = 16/32

Answer: you can multiply the top left to the bottom right. also you can do it diagonally, horizontally, and vertically

Task 4: Heres a video about proportions





Task 5:
1)Does this seem fair?No, this is not fair.
2) With what you know about proportion look and read what is in the image above. Does it seem just and fair? Why have you made this choice? It's not fair because. The man who stole $ 3 billion and was only sentenced for 40 months in jail . And the homeless man who stole $100 who surrendered himself and gave back the money was sentenced for 15 years in jail.
3) What would you have done if you were the judge? If I were the judge, I would sentence the man who stole $3 billion 15 years in jail instead of the homeless man because the homeless man brought himself in and gave back the money.

task 1


Ratio>compares two quantities measured i the same units
Ex.6:9,6 to 9,6/9
Rate-a comparison of two quantities measured in different units
ex.15 to 20,15:20
Proportion-An equation that says that two ratios or two rates are equal
task 2
5 hours to travel 360 miles is about 72mph

As a playgroup worker, if I increase the amount of apple juice I am serving at the playgroup from 25 ml to 100 ml, how much should I increase the the orange juice to, to keep the quantities in the same proportion? The orange juice is 50 ml to start with.
Answer: 200 ml

task 3

What are the three ways you can prove that equivalent ratio statements are true?3/4 = 12/16 Answers:


horizontal:you multiply 3 by 4 and you get 12 and multiply 4 by 4 to get 16


vertical


diagno:when you multiply 3 by 16 you get 48 and multiply 4 by 16 equals to 20

2TASK 5
1. Does it seem Fair?
No its not fair.
2.With what you know about proportion look and read what is in the image above. Does it seem just and fair? Why have you made this choice?I dont think it's fair because the guy that stole $3 billion let him go to jail for 3 yrs and the other guy who stole 100 get to go in jail for 15 years
3.What would you have done if you were the judge? The man that stole $3 Billion will go to jail for 15 years and the man who stole $100 and surendered himself will go to jail for less than a year

Task 2.


1
1. 5 hours to travel 360 miles is about 72m mph

2. As a playgroup worker, if I increase the amount of apple juice I am serving at the playgroup from 25 ml to 100 ml, how much should I increase the the orange juice to, to keep the quantities in the same proportion? The orange juice is 50 ml to start with.
Answer: 200ml







Task 3.
What are the three ways you can prove that equivalent ratio statements are true?
3/4 = 12/16  or 4/9 = 16/32


Answers:
1. first, you can do it horizontally. What you do is you divide or multiply the top left to the top right and do the same thing at the bottom.


2. Next, you can do it vertically . What you do is you can divide or multiply the top left then the bottom left and do the same thing to the opposite side.


3.Finally, you can do it diagonally. What you do is you could dive or multiply the top left and the bottom right and then do the same thing to the top right and the bottom left.

Task 4.
Hope you enjoy the proportion video.








Task 5.


1.Does it seem fair?
NO, it doesn't seem fair at all.


2. With what you know about proportion look and read what is in the image above.  Does it seem just and fair? Why have you made this choice? 
No it's not fair because this man who stole $ 3 billion dollars only is in jail for 40 months. Then this other guy gets 15 years in prison for stealing $100 dollars and bringing it to the police and saying"I did it."


3.What would you have done if you were the judge?
 I have made this choice because the man who stole $ 100 should have only been in jail for like 1 week, and the other guy should of gotten 20 years in prison.

Joshua's Proportion Post

Proportion-An equation tht states two ratios or fractions are equal 3:5 or
 Rate-A comparison of two different quantities mesured in different ways  ex. $1.34/100g $1.34 for every 100 grams
 Ratio- A comparison of two numbers by division   ex. 3:6

1. To find the answer i divided 360 by 5 to get 72mph

2.  25x4=100ml   50x2=100ml 

To show that an equivalent ratio is true are : Find a lowest common denominator, Divide the numerator by the denominator,

The link is for the social justice question

1. This doesn't not seem fair... AT ALL!

2. This doesn't seem fair or just because the $3B fraud guy had to pay $1B for each year. The homeless dude who stole $100 pays $6.66 for each year

3. If I was the judge the $3B fraud guy would get 15 and the homless dude who stole $100 would get ..ehhh... 1 month not even

Carlo's Proportion Post

Task 1:

Ratio- is a comparison of two number of the same kind

Types of ratio:

1. two-term ratio-compares two quantities measured in the same units.

2. three-term ratio- compares three quantities measured in the same units

3. part-to-part ratio- compares different parts of a group to each other.

Ex:
1. You have a bag full of marbles. 1 red, 4 black, 8 white, and 6 multicoloured marble. What is the ratio of the multicoloured marble to the white one?

Solution:
1. First, check the numbers that are to be compared. Which in this case are 8 and 6.
2. Separate the two numbers using a colon (:) or a /.
Answer: 6:8, 8/6

4. part-to-whole ratio- compares one part of a group to a whole group

Ex:
1.You drink a 500 ml water bottle, you drank 369 ml. What is the ratio of the ml you drank to the original ml? No solution this time! :)

Answer: 231

Rate- is a ratio that compares two quantities of two different units.
Ex:
1. $1.50 for 5 candies.
Type:
1. Unit rate- is a rate in which the second term is 1.
Ex:
1. Leo's heart beat 37,645 every 5.5 hours. What is the beat rate of Leo's heart every hour?

Solution:



Task 2:
1. 5 hours to travel 360 miles is about _____mph
Answer: 72 MPH
Solution:


2. As a playgroup worker, if I increase the amount of apple juice I am serving at the playgroup from 25 ml to 100 ml, how much should I increase the the orange juice to, to keep the quantities in the same proportion? The orange juice is 50 ml to start with.
Answer: 200 ml
Solution:

Task 3
1. What are the three ways you can prove that equivalent ratio statements are true?
3/4 = 12/16 or 4/9 = 16/32

Solution:
1. First, you can go horizontally- divide the top left number to the top right and bottom left and bottom right numbers.
2. Second, you can go diagonally- divide top left number to bottom right, and top right corner to bottom left number if you get the same quotient your answer is correct.
3. Lastly, you can do it vertically- divide the numerator by the denominator.

Task 4



Task 5



1.Does this seem fair?
- It's unbelievably unfair.

2.With what you know about proportion look and read what is in the image above. Does it seem just and fair? Why have you made this choice?
- It's not very fair at all.I made this choice because the guy who stole $3 billion which is almost million times larger than the guy who only stole $100 just to feed himself was only sentenced 3 years and the guy who is starving for food spent 15 years which is 12 years longer than the guy who stole $3 billion.

4.What would you have done if you were the judge?
- For me the hungry man's violation is a very minor one. Instead, I would just give him his first warning and sent him to a community center so that he would get free food, care, and workouts.

Answers:
1. First, you can go diagonally. You can multiply the top left to the bottom right and the top right to the bottom left.
2. Secondly, you can do it vertically. You divide the numerator to the denominator for each ratios.
3. Lastly, you can divide the top left to the top right. Then, you divide the bottom left to the bottom right.

Task 4:
This is a video about a class doing proportions. Enjoy!

Task 5:
1. Does this seem fair?
No, I don't think this is very fair at all.

2. With what you know about proportion look and read what is in the image above. Does it seem just and fair? Why have you made this choice?
No, it's not fair. I've made this choice because the first man stole $ 3 billion and was sentenced for 40 months in jail (slightly less than six years.) Then, the other guy stole $ 100 bill because he was very hungry. The next day, he felt guilty and surrendered himself. He was sentenced for 15 years in prison.

3. What would you have done if you were the judge?
If I was the judge, I would've just made it a warning. Then I would give the hungry man a $ 100 so he could buy food and stay at the detox center.
