Ratio and Proportion, NCERT NOTES, Class 6


Ratio and Proportion

Ratio 

  • Ratio is the comparison of a quantity concerning another quantity.
  • It is denoted by ":".
  • Two quantities can be compared only if they are in the same unit.
  • Example: Father's age is 75 years and daughter's age is 25
                    years.
                    Ratio of father's age to daughter's age
                    = Father′s AgeDaughter′s Age= 3 1=3:1

Golden ratio

Two quantities are in golden ratio, if their ratio is same as the ratio of their sum to larger of the two quantities.

  • If two numbers a and b are in golden ratio, then a+ba=ab.
  • It is approximately equal to 1.618.

Difference between fractions and ratios

  •  A fraction describes a part of a whole and its denominator represents the total number of parts.
    Example: 13 means one part out of 3 parts.
  • A ratio is a comparison of two different quantities. 
    Example : In a society, 10 people like driving, 20 people like
                     swimming and total number of people in the society
                     is30.
                     Ratio of number of people liking driving to the total
                     number of people = 10:30
                     Ratio of number of people liking swimming to the
                     several people liking driving are 20:10.

Same ratio in different situations

  • Ratios can remain the same in different situations.
  • Example: Weight of JoeWeight of James=50100=1:2
                    Number of girlsNumber of boys=50100=1:2
                    Here, both the above ratios are equal.

Comparing quantities using ratios

  • Quantities can be compared using ratios.
  • Example: Joe worked for 8 hours and James worked for
                    2 hours. How many times are Joe's working hours is of James' working hours?
    Solution: Working hours of Joe = 8 hours
                   Working hours of Sheela = 2 hours
                   The ratio of working hours of Joe to Sheela =82=4
                   Therefore, Joe works four times more than James.

Equivalent Ratios

When the given ratios are equal, then these ratios are called as equivalent ratios.

  • Equivalent ratios can be obtained by multiplying and dividing the numerator and denominator with same number.
  • Example: Ratios 10:30 (=1:3) and 11:33 (=1:3) are equivalent ratios. 

Unitary Method

The method in which first we find the value of one unit and then the value of required number of units is known as Unitary Method.

  • Example: Cost of two shirts in a shop is Rs.200. What will be the cost of 5 shirts in the shop?
    Solution : Cost of 2 shirts =Rs.200 
                    Cost of 1 shirt =2002=Rs. 100
                    Cost of 5 shirts =(2002)×5=100×5=Rs.500

Proportions

If two ratios are equal, then they are said to be in proportion.

  • Symbol "::" or "=" is used to equate the two ratios.
  • Example: Ratios 2:3 and 6:9 are proportional.
                    ⇒ 2:3 :: 6:9 or 2:3 = 6:9

Uses of ratios and proportions

  • Example: Suppose a man travelled 80 km in 2 hours, how
                    much time will he take to travel 40 km?
    Solution: If x is the required time, then proportion is
                   80:2::40:x.
                   ⇒ 802=40x
                   ⇒  80x=80
                   ⇒ x=1 hour
                   So, the man takes one hour to complete 40km.

Introduction to plants

  Introduction to plants Plants are all around us. They help sustain life on earth by creating food and giving out oxygen that we breathe in. Plants Plants are the immovable living organisms all around us. They are the primary food providers. They are mostly green in colour and use sun as the source of energy to make food. Herbs, shrubs and trees Herbs are the smallest plants and do not have woody stem. Shrubs are slightly larger than herbs. Trees are the largest plants and can have large and thick woody stem. Creepers and climbers Creepers and Climbers are types of plants that need support to grow. Algae and mosses Algae and mosses are the most primitive or simple plants. Algae are found mostly floating on water and mosses are seen on surfaces, rocks or bark of trees in humid conditions.

Decoding India’s First-of-its-Kind DNA Vaccine

  Decoding India’s First-of-its-Kind DNA Vaccine Since the outbreak of COVID-19, we have witnessed two waves of this pandemic that have caused havoc. While our brave frontline workers continue to endlessly help people infected with the virus, our scientists and medical professionals are looking for the best possible ways to prevent this virus from causing further harm. These experts studied different vaccines and tried and tested them in labs before moving forward with clinical trials in humans. Initially, it seemed like a distant dream, but now they are not only being able to produce mass vaccines in a brief period but also developing different types and versions. And one such latest variant is the   ZyCoV-D , the world’s first DNA vaccine produced by India. Structure of SARS CoV- 2 or Covid- 19 Viruses come in different shapes and size essentially they are packages of DNA or RNA inside a protein cell. Talking about the SARS CoV-2, the outermost layer is the viral envelope...

Components of Food, NCERT NOTES, Class 6

  Components of Food What Do Different Food Items Contain? Food Food is the basic requirement for all living organisms. It provides energy for carrying out the normal physiological activities. Components of Food Different components have different nutrients. They all come together to provide wholesome nourishment to us. E.g. Rotis and rice contain predominantly carbohydrates. Dal, eggs, meat etc contain proteins. Oil, ghee contain fat. Sources of Carbohydrates, Proteins, Vitamins & Minerals and Fats  (Clockwise, from the left upper corner) What Do Various Nutrients Do for Our Body? Carbohydrates Carbohydrates are present mostly as starch. They provide us energy and are thus energy giving food. Wheat, Potato, Rice etc. are good sources of carbohydrates. Carbohydrates present in any food item are tested by Iodine test. Few drops of dilute iodine solution are added to the sample food item. If the colour changes from brown to blue-black, the prese...
