Hi, mathletes!
This module was designed to help you gain understanding and test your ability in visualizing the ratio of two given numbers using pictures. Ratios are a helpful tool for comparing things with each other in Mathematics and in real-life situations, so it is important to know what they mean and how they are used. Ratios occur frequently in daily life and help to simplify many of our interactions by putting numbers into perspective. Ratios allow us to measure and express quantities by making them easier to understand.
At the end of this module, you are expected to:
- visualize the ratio of two given numbers, and
- give importance to visualizing ratio of two given numbers.
