RP: Ratios and Proportional Relationships

(Framing Text): Understand ratio concepts and use ratio reasoning to solve problems.

RP.M.6.1: Understand the concept of a ratio and use ratio language to describe a ratio relationship between two quantities. (e.g., “The ratio of wings to beaks in the bird house at the zoo was 2:1, because for every 2 wings there was 1 beak.” “For every vote candidate A received, candidate C received nearly three votes.”)

RP.M.6.2: Understand the concept of a unit rate a/b associated with a ratio a:b with b ≠ 0, and use rate language in the context of a ratio relationship. (e.g., “This recipe has a ratio of 3 cups of flour to 4 cups of sugar, so there is 3/4 cup of flour for each cup of sugar.” “We paid $75 for 15 hamburgers, which is a rate of $5 per hamburger.”)

(Framing Text): Apply and extend previous understandings of multiplication and division to divide fractions by fractions.

NS.M.6.4: Interpret and compute quotients of fractions and solve word problems involving division of fractions by fractions by using visual fraction models and equations to represent the problem. (e.g., Create a story context for (2/3) ÷ (3/4) and use a visual fraction model to show the quotient; use the relationship between multiplication and division to explain that (2/3) ÷ (3/4) = 8/9 because 3/4 of 8/9 is 2/3. (In general, (a/b) ÷ (c/d) = ad/bc.) How much chocolate will each person get if 3 people share 1/2 lb of chocolate equally? How many 3/4-cup servings are in 2/3 of a cup of yogurt? How wide is a rectangular strip of land with length 3/4 mi and area ½ square mi?)
