Ratio

Today we learned that ratio can be used in practical ways such as: cooking, building, making squash and mixing shades of colours. We can simplify ratio for example: 3:9 = 1:3
Each of the numbers represents a part so 1:3 means there are 4 parts in total.
We were making squash so if the ratio was water to squash - 11:3 you would need 11 parts water and 3 parts squash. You cannot write the ratio 3:11 because you'll end up with 3 parts water and 11 parts squash - making the wrong consistency.

Here are some pictures of what we did today:
