Exploring Equivalent Ratios with Tape Diagrams

The video tutorial introduces equivalent ratios and explains how to find them using tape diagrams. It covers the concept of equivalent ratios, which are two ratios showing the same relationship, and demonstrates how to find them by multiplying or dividing each part of the ratio by the same number. The tutorial includes examples using tape diagrams to solve problems involving tutoring hours and paint mixing, illustrating how to find one part when given the other or the total.

What is the primary method discussed for finding equivalent ratios?

• Using multiplication or division

• Using square roots

• Graphical representation

• Adding or subtracting values

What visual tool is used to find equivalent ratios in the examples?

• Pie charts

• Line graphs

• Tape diagrams

• Tables
