III. PROCEDURE
Teacher’s Activity Pupils’ Activity

A. Review

What was our previous topic?

Our previous topic is about
proportion.
What is proportion?
A proportion is a statement of
equality between two ratios.
Indeed! Proportion shows equality
between two ratios.

Who wants to find the missing value

of this proportion?

5:7 = n:14 5:7 = n:14

7n = 70
7 7
n = 10
Therefore, the missing value in the
proportion is 10.

B. Motivation

Let’s have an activity!

Imagine that we are in the market. I

am the vendor and you are the
costumer. If for every 5 pieces of The answer is 50 pesos.
banana, it costs 25 pesos. Now, you
intend to buy 10 pieces for your
dietary meal. How much will it cost?
That’s correct.

For the next activity, watch this (Students watch the youtube video.)
youtube video. Take note of the
presented examples and be able to
give the topic it is trying to present.
What is the presentation all about? It presents the different types of
proportion.

C. Presentation

Exactly! You are correct in your

observation. In fact, our lesson for
this morning is all about the types of
proportion.

D. Discussion
These are Direct Proportion, Inverse
What are the three types of Proportion and Partitive Proportion.
proportion, class?
Direct proportion is a kind of
What is a direct proportion? proportion in which when the
quantity in the first ration increases,
the other quantity increases at the
same rate, and vice versa.

Direct proportion.
Considering our first activity a while
ago, what kind of proportion is
illustrated?

Good! Going back to that example, let

us try to show it using a table.

5 bananas ₱25.00
10 bananas N
5:25 = 10: N
In the direct proportion form, how is
it expressed?
Solution:
To find the missing value in the 5:25 = 10: N
proportion, who can solve it? 5N = 250
5 5
N = 50
It will cost ₱50.00 when you buy 10
pieces of bananas for your dietary
meal.

The example shows that an increase

in the number of bananas caused an
increase in the cost.

Let’s have another example:

Solution:
The bus fare for an 80 km distance is 80 km ₱65.00
₱65.00. How much is the bus fare for 320 km N
a 320 km trip?
80: 65 = 320: N
Who may present the example in a 80N = 20800
table form, and solve for the missing 80 80
value of proportion formed? N = 260

Therefore, the bus fare for a 320 km

trip is ₱260.00.

Inverse proportion is a kind of

proportion in which when one
quantity increases, the other quantity
Very good. Now, let’s proceed to our decreases at the same rate, and vice
second type of proportion. What is an versa.
indirect/ inverse proportion?

Let’s have an example to illustrate

this.

Four pipes can fill a tank in 70

minutes. How long will it take to fill 4 pipes 70 mins.
the same tank using 7 pipes? 7 pipes N

Who may present the problem in the

tabular form?

Since this is an inverse proportion, it

should be expressed in the fraction 4= N
form such that we take the inverse of 7 70
the second ratio. Take note that the
same quantities are on each fraction. 4= N
How is this expressed? 7 70
7N = 280
Who may solve for the missing value 7 7
in the resulting proportion? N= 40
Therefore, it only takes 40 minutes
to fill the same tank using 7 pipes.

Good job! Let us try another example.

6 men 2 days
If 6 men can plow a field in 2 days. 3 men N
How long will take 3 men to do it?
Who may present the problem in the 6=N
tabular form? 3 2

How is this expressed in the indirect 6=N

proportion form? 3 2
3N = 12
Who may solve for the missing value 3 3
in the resulting proportion? N= 4

Therefore, it took the 3 men to plow

the field for 4 days.

Partitive proportion is a kind of

Very good! Now, let’s proceed to the
third type which is Partitive
Proportion. What is a partitive ratio?
ration in which a whole is divided
into parts that are proportional to the
given ratio.

Let’s try this example.

Four children decided to celebrate

their parent’s anniversary by eating
out in an expensive restaurant. They
decided to divide the expenses into a
ratio of 2:3:4:5. How much did each
2N + 3N+ 4N +5N = 14N
of the children pay if the cost is
₱7,406.00?
To solve this example, we get the sum
of the equal parts by which the whole
will be divided into.
Form the mathematical equation
based on the problem.
Let us solve the resulting equation.
Considering that each part is ₱529,
how much will each of the children
pay?
To check, let’s add all of the
contributed amount:
₱1,058.00
₱1,587.00
+ ₱2,116.00
₱2,645.00
₱7,406.00
Let’s try another example.
John plans to donate his collection of
3,100 books to three libraries in the
ratio of 2:3:5. How many books will
each library get?
Who can show the solution of the
given problem?
E. Generalization
2N + 3N+ 4N +5N= 7,406
2N + 3N+ 4N +5N = 7,406
14N = 7,406
14 14
N= 529
Therefore, each part is ₱529.
The first child should give twice.
Therefore, 2 x 529 = ₱1,058.00
The second child should give thrice.
Therefore, 3 x 529 = ₱1,587.00
The third child should give four
times. Therefore, 4 x 529 =
₱2,116.00
The fourth child should give five
times. Therefore, 5 x 529 =
₱2,645.00
Solution:
2N + 3N+ 5N = 3,100
10N = 3,100
10N = 3,100
10 10
N = 310
The first library receives twice.
Therefore, 2 x 310 = 620 books.
The second library receives thrice.
Therefore, 3 x 310 = 930 books.
The third library receives five times.
Therefore, 5 x 310 = 1,550 books.
If one quantity increases, the other
quantity increases at the same rate.
 Based on our discussion, what is If one quantity increases, the other
direct proportion? quantity decreases at the same rate,
and vice versa.
Excellent! What is an inverse
proportion? Partitive Proportion if the whole is
divided into parts that are
proportional to the given ratio.
What about Partitive Proportion?
Be able to recognize the type of
proportion that the problem is
illustrating in order to form the
What are the things we need to correct proportion statement.
consider when solving proportions?

F. Values Integration
Can we apply these types of
proportion in our daily life? Give
some examples?
For example, when go to the
grocery. When we clean our class
room or our houses.

G. Application (Should you do the same, indicate

the criteria here)
