In Mrs.

Dela Rosa’s Grade 6 Math class, she

gives 2 pieces of bond paper for every pupil.
We say that the
ratio of pupil to We write it
bond paper is 1 is to 2,
“1 is to 2”. 1:2 or 1/2
 What is ratio?
*A ratio is a comparison of two
quantities.
*It can be written in three ways:
1 is to 2 1:2 1
word form colon form 2
fraction form
In our example, we compared the number of
pupils to the number of sheets of bond paper.
If there are 5 pupils in Mrs. Dela Rosa’s class,
how many sheets of bond paper should she
distribute?
The ratio of pupils to paper is
5 is to 10 or 5:10 or 5
10
We can write 5 in simplest form

5 1x5 1
= =
10 2x5 2
