7th Grade Ratios and Proportional Relationships

Big Ideas
Ratio – A ratio is used to measure two different things in two different units.
Ex. How far a car drives with how long it takes to get to the destination.
Ex. Cost of different bags of jellybeans in dollars per pound
.
Proportional Relationships – Examining relationships between two equal ratios.
Ex. Painting a room and need to mix 3 colors together to create a new color.
Constructing Proportions – Writing and solving proportions with unknown variables. Slide3
Progressions
Seventh grade ratio and proportions is a continuation of the sixth grade standards. Students need to remember from sixth grade that:
Ratios and Proportions involve multiplication, not addition.
Move from using only fractions to using ratios and proportions to describe the relationship between amounts.
Students will use ratios in algebra, geometry, and calculus in high school.
Use ratios in cases that involve pairs of rational number entries, and compute associated unit rates.Identify these unit rates in representations of proportional relationships.Work with equations in two variables to represent and analyze proportional relationships.Solve multi-step ratio and percent problems, such as problems involving percent increase and decrease.

Standards
7.RP.1
– Compute unit rates associated with ratios of fractions, including ratios of lengths, areas, and other quantities measured in like or different units.

7.RP.2 – Recognize and represent proportional relationships between quantities. a. Decide whether two quantities are in a proportional relationship e.g. by testing for equivalent ratios in a table or graphing on a coordinate plane and observing whether the graph is a straight line through the origin.
b
. Identify the constant of proportionality (unit rate) in tables, graphs, equations, diagrams, and verbal descriptions of proportional relationships.
c
. Represent proportional
relationships by equationsd. Explain what a point (x,y) on the graph of a proportional relationship means in terms of the situation, with special attention to the points (0,0) and (1,r) where r is the unit rate. Slide6
7.RP.3 – Use proportional relationships to solve multistep and percent problems.

Percent of Total
Problem: Marjorie baked 1000 cupcakes. She sold 87% of her cupcakes. How many cupcakes did she sell?
Try using a model method to solve your problem instead of just the algorithm! Slide10
Percent of Total
Solution
Using the model method you will break your model into ten equal sections (because it has to equal 100%). From there you will break one section of the model into tenths (to break down the model even further to find the 7% of the 87%).
You will then count the number of 100’s that are represented by 80% (this would be 8). Multiply 8 x 100 = 800.
Then to find the 7% left over you need to take the box you broke into tenths (by dividing 100 by 10 = 10). You then take 7 of the tenths and multiply by their value which is 10. This gives you 7 x 10 = 70.
Final step is to add the two answers together 800+70 = 870 cupcakes, or 87% of her total amount of 1000 cupcakes. Slide11
