Ratios
A ratio compares two quantities in a given order.
For example, if the number of oranges in a bag is twice that of the number of apples, this is a ratio of 2
to 1 and is written as:
2:1
Each number is called a term of the ratio
The order in a ratio is important. The ratio of oranges to apples is 2:1. The ratio of apples to oranges is 1:2.
The shapes below are divided into equal rectangular regions. For each region: (i) Write down the ratio of the shaded region to unshaded region. (ii) Write down the ratio of the shaded region to the whole shape.
a
(i) 1 part is shaded, while 4 parts are unshaded, so the ratio of shaded to unshaded parts is 1 to 4, or using ratio notation, 1:4.
(ii) There are 5 equal parts in total. ` The ratio of shaded to the whole is 1:5.
b
(i) 3 parts are shaded, while 2 parts are unshaded, so the ratio of shaded to unshaded parts is 3 to 2, or using ratio notation, 3:2.
(ii) There are 5 equal parts in total. ` The ratio of the shaded parts to the whole shape is 3:5.
c
(i) 4 parts are shaded, while 3 parts are unshaded. ` The ratio of shaded to unshaded parts is 4 to 3, or using ratio notation, 4:3.
(ii) There are 7 equal parts in total. ` The ratio of the shaded parts to the whole shape is 4:7.

2 Complete shading in the parts until they match the ratio of shaded to non-shaded given underneath.
psst. It doesn't matter which ones you shade, as long as the proportion is correct.
Shaded to Non-shaded parts = 7:9.
Shaded to Non-shaded parts = 9:5.
