I. Objectives
At the end of the lesson, the students will be able to:

A. Cognitive: Describe & find the missing term in Proportion.

B. Affective: Believe that they can form proportion for group of objects or numbers.
C. Psychomotor: Use colon and fraction form in writing ratios and proportion.

III. Procedure

 Preparatory Activities
A. Drill
Direction: Express the following fractions in lowest term.

1. 9/18
2. 15/30
3. 28/20
4. 72/9
5. 18/42

B. Review
Direction: Divide the following.

1. 2/3 ÷ 4/9 = n
2. 4/5 ÷ 2/15 = n
3. 8/9 ÷ 5/6 = n
4. 3/8 ÷ 1/4 = n
5. 3/8 ÷ 2/3 = n
 Developmental Activities

C. Presentation
What is Ratio?

- Ratio is a comparison of two quantities.

- Two equal ratios form a proportion.
- Ratios can be written as fractions.
- We use colon ( : ) or fraction form (x/y) in writing ratios.

Example:
Yaya Dub planted 12 fruit trees in his orchard. Of these trees, 5 are mango trees
and the rest are apple trees. *picture*

Let us compare the number of Mango trees to the total fruit trees planted.
The ratio is 5:12 or 5/12

- Ratios, like fraction can expressed in lowest term.

Example:
In a classroom, there are 4 boys and two girls.
The ratio is 4:2 or 2:1
 D. Discussion

- Remember, ratios must expresses first in both measurement and unit.

Example:
6hours to 2days
To make the unit same, we will change days to hours.
The result is 6hours to 48hours.
The ratio is 6:48 or 1:8

- The statement that two ratios are equal called Proportion.

Example:
3:10 = 15:50 *To prove that they are equal, cross
multiply. Each has an answer of 150.
means
- Finding the term in proportion.
n:3 = 10:15
extremes *n is the unknown variable.

To find the unknown variable, follow these guide steps.

Step1. Write the proportion in fraction form.
n = 10
3 15
Step2. Multiply the extremes and then the means. Note that, we use the raised dot
(.) for multiplication instead of x symbol.
n = 10
3 15 15 . n = 3 . 10 15n = 30
Step3. Divide the left and right sides.
15n = 30
n=2
15 15

To check, replace n with 2, and then cross multiply.

2 = 10
3 15 2 . 15 = 30
3 . 10 = 30
E. Generalization
Ratios are numbers express rates. It shows the comparison of two quantities. Ratios,
when equal are called Proportion. In writing Ratios, we use colon or fraction form.

IV. Evaluation
A. Direction: Express the following ratios in lowest term.
1. 5:20
2. 12:4
3. 6:18
4. 1hour to 120minutes
5. 9days to 3weeks

B. Direction: Find the value of n in each following proportions.

1. n : 4 = 3 : 6
2. 8 : 12 = 10 : n
3. 5 : n = 1 : 2
4. 3 : 7 = 24 : n
5. n : 10 = 18 : 5
