Reason For Learning
Proportion and rates are often used to compare quantities. Kilometres per hour, prices per kilogram, dollars per litre, and pay per hour or per week are all examples of rates. Dividing quantities according to a particular rule requires an understanding of ratios and rates.
Learning Intention
Students will be able to use rates and proportions to solve both simple and worded problems. They will be able to relate this into relevant, real world problems.
