To get the unit to equal 1,divide both numbers by the denominator; your answer is the number you get by dividing the numerator by denominator. Using this method to calculate unit cost, too- you are calculating how much 1 item is worth, after you are given the amount that multiplies items cost.

#10. In order to find a ratio, all we need to do is set up a simple equation and then cross-multiply!

I'll show you !

In this case, we'll take the already established ration (14 : 8 ) and find the equivalent ratio where 7 is in place of 14 (7: x) 

x will be the other table value we are looking for!

Now let's set up the equation and cross-multiply!

$\frac{14}{8} = \frac{7}{x}$

cross multiply 14 and x, then 8 and 7

We get: 14x = 56

solve to find x!

x = 56/14

x = 4 blankets

Now let's use the ratio 7: 4 to find what goes with 16 in the table!

$\frac{7}{4} = \frac{x}{16}$

4x = 112

x = 112/4

x = 28 towels

#11. : Using the same method, I'll fill in the values of the table on #11

16 forks, 10 spoons

8 forks, 5 spoons,

48 forks, 30 spoons

#12. If the neighbor pays you $17 for every 2 hours of work, we need to find how many times 2 hours goes in 8 hours of work

We do this by dividing

8/2 = 4 times

2 hours of work goes into 8, 4 times!

Now we multiply 4 by $17 to find how much your neighbor owes you!

$17 × 4 = $68

Your neighbor owes you $68 !!!
