Rambunctious Ratios

Rambunctious Ratios
            We are learning to use addition and subtraction to solve proportion and ratios problems.
Multiplication and Division Practice

  1. 4 x 6 = 24             2. 4 x 5 = 20 3.   4 x 8 = 32 4.   4 x 12 = 48
       
      5.    28 x 2 = 56 6.   33 x 10 = 330 7.   40 x 30 = 700 8.   4 x 7 = 28

      9.   40 ÷ 4 = 10             10. 12 ÷ 4   = 3           11. 16 ÷ 4 = 4 12.   25 ÷  5 = 5

Word problem of the week:
For every 8 girls in a school, there are 12 boys. If there are 40 students in the school, how many girls and boys are there in the school?

Wicked word problems!
Solve these problems. Write down your strategies:

  1. Zyla has 64 lollies to share between some friends. How many lollies would each friend get if there were 8 altogether?
8x8= 64
64÷8= 8
  1. At Pt England Kids one teacher is allowed to care for three toddlers. How many toddlers can they look after if there are 8 teachers?
1:3
1x8= 8
3x8= 24
8:24
  1. It takes AL87 5 minutes to make 10 sausages for the sausage sizzle. How long will it take them to make 70 sausages?
5:10
10x7= 70
5x7= 35
35:70
  1. At camp, we need one adult to every 8 students. If there are 88 year eights this year, how many adults will we need to take?
1:8
8x11= 88
1x11= 11
11:88
If there were 90, how many adults would we need to take to still be legal?
            12 adults are needed.
  1. If 1 pack of raro makes 8 cups of drink, how many packs would we need to make 64?
1:8
8x8= 64
1x8= 8
8:64
  1. If 3 loaves of bread feed 9 children for a week, how many loaves would 12 children need?
3:9÷2= 1:3
1:3+3:9= 4:12
