3.8 Rates, Ratios and Percents
-We will use rates and ratios to model and solve real life world problems.
-We will use percents to model and solve real life problems.

Using Rates and Ratios
• Rate of a per b is a/b.
• Unit rate -
– Think of miles per gallon or $ per hour.

Interpreting Large Numbers
• Use unit rates to bring the numbers to something you can get a handle on.
• Total US spending. Remember 300 million people live in the US.

Solving Proportions

Applications of Proportions1. Read the problem and represent the unknown
quantity by x.2. Set up a proportion by listing the given ratio on
one side and the ratio with the unknown quantity on the other side.
1. Make sure that similar values are in numerators and similar values are in the denominators.
3. Drop units and apply the cross products principle.
4. Solve for x and answer the question.
