This math topic focuses on understanding and applying the concept of equivalent ratios, particularly when calculating ratios involving decimals. It deals with real-world applications such as adjusting ingredient amounts in recipes based on provided ratios. Students are guided to solve problems that require determining the amount of one ingredient when the amount of another is given, using non-integer multiples represented by decimal values. Each problem includes multiple-choice answers, prompting students to evaluate the correct calculation of ratios in different contexts.
