1.1 Rate 率
A rate is a comparison of two quantities of different kinds by division.
A rate can be seen as a relation of one quantity per unit of another quantity. For example, if Julie spends
$60 in a day, we say that she spends money at a rate of $60/day. ‘/’ is used to denote ‘per’ when we
write rate. 4

A. Ratio and their Properties
A ratio is a comparison of two quantities of the same kind by division.
x
The ratio of a non-zero quantity x to another non-zero quantity y can be written as x : y / .
y
The ratio of a non-zero quantity x to a non-zero quantity y to another non-zero quantity z is
written as x : y : z .
Properties of ratios:

B. Continued Ratios
For example, if a : b = 2 : 3 and b : c = 4 : 5 , find a : b : c .
Method 1
Make the common term b in each ratio has the same value. Step 1: Find the LCM of 3 and 4.
12
The LCM of 3 and 4 is _____.
a : b = 2: 3 = __________
8:12 Step 2: 4 ,
Multiply a : b by _____
3. ,
Multiply b : c by _____
b : c = 4: 5 = __________
12:15 So we have same value of b in both ratios.
