HW # p # odd
Warm up
Mr. Lynch bought some oranges and pears. After giving away 10 oranges, he had twice as many pears as oranges left. If he had 24 pears in the end, what was the ratio of oranges to pears in the beginning?

2. Warm Up Response
24/2 = 12 He had 12 oranges in the end
= 22 He had 22 oranges in the beginning
Oranges:Pears
22:24
11:12
The ratio of oranges to pears in the beginning was 11:12

5. A rate is a comparison of two quantities measured in different units.90 3
Ratio:
Read as
“90 miles per 3 hours.”
90 miles
3 hours
Rate:

6. Unit rates are rates in which the second quantity is 1.
The ratio 90 3
can be simplified by dividing: 90 3 30 1 =
30 miles,
1 hour
unit rate:
or 30 mi/h
