Sharing in a ratio – summary of method
Jake and Kevin have earned £40 washing cars. They
3
decide that Jake will get 5 of it and Kevin will get the
rest.
1.
What fraction will Kevin get?
2.
How would you write their shares as a ratio? J : K
= 3:2
We say that Jake gets 3 parts and Kevin gets 2 parts.
How many parts is that in total? 3 + 2 = 5
3.
If the full amount (£40) is 5 parts, how can we
find 1 part?
Divide by 5
So 1 part must be £8
4.
If Jake gets 3 parts and Kevin gets 2 parts, how
much does each of them get?
Jake: 3 x £8 = £24
Kevin: 2 x £8 = £16
1. Add up how many parts there are in
total.
3+2=5
2. Divide the amount by the number of
parts to find out how much 1 part is.
5 parts = £40
1 part = £40 ÷ 5 = £8
3. Multiply up to work out how much
each person gets.
Jake gets 3 x £8 = £24
Kevin gets 2 x £8 = £16
4. Check that your shares add up to the
right amount.
£24 + £16 = £40 ü

Manipulating ratios
1. Simplify these ratios by putting the values into the same units and
cancelling if possible:
a. 20cm : 1m
b. 5mm : 2m
c. 40g : 6kg
d. 6 days : 4 weeks
= 20 cm : 100 cm
=1:5
= 5 mm : 2000 mm
= 1 : 400
= 40 g : 6000 g
= 1 : 150
2. Express each of these ratios in the form 1 : n
a. 3 : 12 = 1 : 4
b. 4 : 6 = 1 : 𝟔
c. 12 : 30 = 1 : 𝟑𝟎

showing any reasoning!
2. In the supermarket you often see price comparisons done for you on the
shelf label – but they’re not always in the same units. For example:
Harvest Fresh Fruit & Fibre cereal is priced at £1.79 for a 500g pack. The label
says this is £3.58 per kg. (You should be able to work this out in your head!)
Sunny Grain’s version of the same cereal costs £1.29 for 375g. This is given as
34.4p per 100g. (You wouldn’t be expected to work this one out without a
calculator, but can you do it with one?)

Ratio and algebra (GCSE)

Example: If the ratio of x to y is 1 : 3, express y in terms of x.
Check
𝑥
1
𝑥
𝑦
We can write x : y = 1 : 3 in the form 𝑦 = 3 (or 1 = 3 )
then cross-multiply to get 3×𝑥 = 1×𝑦
Answer:
So the algebraic expression is y = 3x.
x:y
An easy way to do this is to write
2:5
x:y
VAA
5x = 2y
Check
1:3
Divide by 2 to get y
[Now multiply the x by the 3 and the y by the 1]
on its own:
3x = 1y
so
y = 3x
𝟓
y = 𝟐x or y = 2.5x
What would you write if the ratio x : y were 2 : 5?
Remember, “express y in terms of x” means that your final answer needs

Using equivalent ratios (GCSE)
We need to write these as equivalent ratios
with a common value at the overlap
There are 3 black pens for every 2 red ones, So let’s do 2 x 5 = 10 for red.
and the ratio of red to green pens is 5: 4.
Looking at the B : R ratio, we’ve multiplied
the 2 by 5 so we also need to multiply the 3
(a) What is the ratio of black to green
by 5, giving 15.
pens?
Looking at the R : G ratio, we’ve multiplied
(b) What’s the minimum number of pens the 5 by 2 so we also need to multiply the 4
there could be in the box?
by 2, giving 8.
So the ratio B : R : G is 15 : 10 : 8
First, write down the info you’re given:
And the ratio B : G is 15 : 8
B : R : G
(b) Total number of parts = 15 + 10 + 8 = 33
3 : 2
Each part has to be a whole number of pens
5 : 4
So the total number of pens must be a multiple of 33
15 : 10 : 8
So 33 is the minimum possible number of pens.
A box contains black, red and green pens.

Change-of-ratio problem – Method 1 (1 part = n) (GCSE)
Bags A and B contain counters in the ratio 7 : 3.
3 counters are taken out of bag A and put in bag B. The ratio is now 5 : 3.
How many counters were in bag A initially?
Let’s call 1 part n counters
Then initially,
bag A contains 7n counters
and bag B contains 3n counters.
When 3 counters are taken out of A and put
into B we have
A:B
7n – 3 : 3n + 3
=
5 : 3
so 3(7n – 3) = 5(3n + 3)
21n – 9 = 15n + 15
6n = 24
=>
n = 4
If 1 part = 4 counters then
A initially had 7 x 4 = 28 counters
(and B initially had 3 x 4 = 12 counters.)
Use “after” ratio to check:
7(4) – 3 = 25; 3(4) + 3 = 15
25 : 15 = 5 : 3 ü
Change-of-ratio problem – Method 2(simult eqns) (GCSE)
Bags A and B contain counters in the ratio 7 : 3.
3 counters are taken out of bag A and put in bag B. The ratio is now 5 : 3.
How many counters were in bag A initially?
A : B (initial values)
7:3
so 3A = 7B
①
When 3 counters are taken out of A
and put into B we have
A–3:B+3
5 : 3
so 3(A – 3) = 5(B + 3)
3A – 9 = 5B + 15
3A = 5B + 24 ②
Solve simultaneous equations ① and ②:
7B = 5B + 24 (= 3A)
2B = 24
B = 12
B’s original 3 parts = 12 counters
so 1 part = 4 counters
so A originally had 7 x 4 = 28 counters.
Use “after” ratio to check: A – 3 = 25; B + 3 = 15
