Identifying and Writing Equivalent Rates

Ratios compare two quantities. A rate is a type of ratio that compares two quantities that have different units of measurement. The word “per” is often used to describe rates.

Rates can be written as fractions. The first quantity is the numerator and the second quantity is the denominator. Different rates that have the same value are equivalent rates. You can find an equivalent rate the same way you find equivalent ratios—divide or multiply the numerator and the denominator by the same number.
