5-1 Ratios and Proportions

A ratio is a comparison of two quantities by division. In one rectangle, the ratio of shaded squares to unshaded squares is 7:5. In the other rectangle, the ratio is 28:20. Both rectangles have equivalent shaded areas. Ratios that make the same comparison are equivalent ratios.
