6–2BUILD YOUR VOCABULARY (pages 144–145)ortwo related quantities bythe same number is called scaling.EXAMPLE Use ScalingCLOTHING Coco used 12 yardsof fabric to make 9 blouses.Use the ratio table to find thenumber of blouses she couldmake with 20 yards of fabric.Yards ofFabricNumber ofBlouses12 209 There is no whole number by which you can multiply 12 to get20. So, scale back to 4 and then scale forward to 20.÷ 3 × 5Yards ofFabricNumber ofBlouses12 209÷ 3 × 5Divide each quantity by acommon factor, 3.Then, since 4 × 5 = 20,multiply each quantity by 5.So, Coco could makewith 20 yards of fabric.HOMEWORKASSIGNMENTPage(s):Exercises:Check Your Progress PAINT Mrs. Wallace ordered 8bottles of paint for 18 students.

6–3ProportionsMAIN IDEA• Determine if two ratiosare proportional.BUILD YOUR VOCABULARY (pages 144–145)Two quantities are proportional if they have a constantratio or rate.A proportion is an equation stating that two ratios or ratesare equivalent.EXAMPLES Use Unit RatesDetermine if the quantities in the pair of ratios or ratesare proportional. Explain your reasoning and expresseach proportional relationship as a proportion.20 rolls for $5; 48 rolls for $12Write each rate as a fraction. Then find its unit rate.÷ 5÷ 12__ $520 rolls =__ $1248 rolls =Copyright © Glencoe/McGraw-Hill, a division of The McGraw-Hill Companies, Inc.÷ 5÷ 12Since the rates have the same unit rate, they are equivalent.The cost is proportional to the number of rolls.So, = .42 people on 7 teams; 64 people on 8 teams÷ 7__ 42 people7 teams =÷ 7÷ 8__ 64 people8 teams =Since the rates do not have the same unit rate, they are notequivalent. So, the number of people isto the number of teams.÷ 8Math Connects, Course 1 151
