Associated Ratios and Fractions

Ratios can be written as fractions. For example, if the ratio of boys to girls in a class is 3:5, it can also be written as the fraction 3/5, which represents the proportion of boys to the total number of students.

For a part-to-part ratio A:B, we are often interested in the associated inverse ratio B:A. Further, if A and B can both be measured in the same unit, we are often interested in the associated part-to-whole ratios A:(A+B) and B:(A+B)

For example, if Tom caught 3 fish and Kyle caught 5 fish, we can say:

• The ratio of the number of fish Tom caught to the number of fish Kyle caught is 3:5.
• The ratio of the number of fish Kyle caught to the number of fish Tom caught is 5:3.
• The ratio of the number of fish Tom caught to the total number of fish the two boys caught is 3:8.
• The ratio of the number of fish Kyle caught to the total number of fish the two boys caught is 5:8.
