This math topic focuses on understanding and applying the concept of equivalent ratios, particularly in practical scenarios such as scaling ingredients for recipes. Each problem presents a situation where a specific ratio (such as ingredients in a recipe or components in a color mix) must be scaled up to accommodate a larger quantity, requiring the calculation of one of the components based on a given amount of the other. The problems are structured to enhance students' abilities to work with whole numbers in the context of proportional relationships, reinforcing skills in ratio expansion and multiplication.
