What students practice
Ratios start as counts in a picture, written as a : b, a to b, and a fraction. Students find one unit on a tape diagram, count up both lines of a double number line, fill and graph ratio tables, and compare two mixes by matching one row. Then the amount for 1 takes over: unit rates, unit prices to the cent, and constant speed, with a self-checking code page and a Mixed Review.
What's inside
- p. 3
Ratio Language
Write each ratio with numbers, first quantity first.
- p. 4
Tape Diagrams
Use the tape diagram to find one unit, then each amount.
- p. 5
Double Number Lines
Fill in the missing numbers so each pair makes the same ratio.
- p. 6
Ratio Tables
Fill in each ratio table, then answer the questions.
- p. 7
Ratio Tables on a Graph
Plot each table on the grid, or read the graph to fill in the table.
- p. 8
Compare Ratios
Fill in both tables until they share a number, then compare.
- p. 9
Proportions
Solve each problem any way you like: scale up, scale down, or find one first.
- p. 10
Rates and Unit Rates
Find each unit rate: how much for 1.
- p. 11
Unit Pricing
Find each unit price, then pick the better buys.
- p. 12
Constant Speed
Each trip goes at a constant speed: find the speed, the distance, or the time.
- p. 13
Ratio Code
Solve each problem, then use the code to spell the word.
- p. 14
Mixed Review
Use any strategy from this packet.
Think: 2 + 3 = 5 equal units make 20, so 1 unit is 4 and 2 units are 8.

Who it's for
Grade 6 classes in the ratios unit. Tables use whole numbers and graphs are first quadrant. Percents and unit conversions (6.NR.4.6 and 6.NR.4.7) are in Percents and Conversions.
