Understanding Ratio and Proportion
Description
The house painting project calls for sky blue, but all Jess's mom gave her are dark blue and white. Using that problem as a starting point, this program distinguishes ratios from proportions and explains the concepts of simplest form and equivalent ratios. By the video's end, viewers will have a thorough understanding of ratios and proportions: what they are, how to work with them, and how they can be applied in everyday situations.
