RATIO: The quotient of two numbers (or quantities), the relative sizes of two
numbers (or quantities). Every Ratio is a fraction. or . A ratio is a comparison with
respect to division of two numbers or quantities with same unit.
a
The ratio of a to b is written as a : b = b = a  b . where a and b is said to be first and
second terms of the ratio respectively. The first term of a ratio is called the
„ANTECEDENT’ and the second the „CONSEQUENT’. The word antecedent means “that
which goes before” and the consequent means “that which goes after”.
Example-1: The given two sticks 15 inches and 5 inches long, we know that the length
of the first is 3 times that of the second, in other words, the ratio of their lengths is 3 to
1 or 3 : 1.
Example-2: the given Rs. 7 and Rs. 21, we know that the first quantity is one-third of
second. Thus we say that the ratio of Rs. 7 to Rs. 21 is 1 : 3.
Example-5: The ratio between two quantities of the same kind in an abstract number.
Thus the ratio of 15 tables and 5 tables is 15 : 5 = 15 tables =3 ≠ 3tables
5 tables
COMPOUND RATIO: Ratios are compounded by multiplying together the antecedents for a new
antecedent, and the consequents for a new consequent.

Example-4: Find the ratio compounded of the four ratios. 4 :3 9 : 13, 26 : 5 and 2:15.
Solution: The required compound ratio = 4  9  26  2  16
3  13  5  15 25
2 2
4 : 3 is compounded with itself the resulting ratio is 4 : 3 .
Its said to be DUPLICATE RATIO OF 4 : 3.
3 3
Similarly, 4 : 3 is said to be TRIPLICATE RATIO OF 4 : 3.
4 : 3 is said to be SUB-DUPLICATE RATIO OF 4 : 3.
1 13
4 :3 3 is said to be SUB-TRIPLICATE RATIO OF 4 : 3.
1 : 1 or 3 : 4 is said to be its INVERSE or RECIPROCAL RATIO OF 4 : 3.
4 3
If THE ANTECEDENT = THE CONSEQUENT,
Then the ratio is called the RATIO OF EQUALITY, such as 3 : 3.
If THE ANTECEDENT > THE CONSEQUENT,
Then the ratio is called the RATIO OF GREATER INEQUALITY, such as 4 : 3.
If THE ANTECEDENT < THE CONSEQUENT,
Then the ratio is called the RATIO OF LESS INEQUALITY, such as 3 : 4.

Topic: Profit and Loss Problems


Important formulae:

Profit = S.P – C.P


Loss = C.P – S.P

S.P = [100 + gain% x C.P]


100

S.P = [100 – Loss % x C.P]


100

C.P = [100______ x S.P]


100 + gain%

C.P = [100______ x S.P]


100 – Loss %

To find Profit % we use

[Change in No of items x 100]


Selling item

In professy, goods are sold at cost price but due to usage of false weights gain is
incurred.
Gain % = [ error____________ x 100 ]
True value – error
Or
Gain = [change in weight__ x 100 ]
Used weight

If selling price of two items is same, and then same percent of loss and gain are
incurred, then the loss percent on all can be calculated as
2
Loss% = x X x = x
100 100

If the selling price is changed, the percent profit or loss is also changed, then;

DISTANCE BETWEEN TWO GEOMETRICAL FIGURES


The distance between two geometric figures is the straight line segment which is the shortest
segment (perpendicular) between the figures.
If point is on the perpendicular bisector of a line segment, then it is equidistance from the ends of
the line segment.
If a point is equidistant from the ends of a line segment, then it is on the perpendicular bisector of
the line segment.
If a point is on the bisector of an angle, then it is equidistant from the sides of the angle.
If a point is equidistant from the sides of an angle, then it is on the bisector of the angle.
Two point each equidistant from the ends of a line segment determine the perpendicular bisectors
of the line segment.
The perpendicular bisectors of the sides of a triangle meet in a point which is equidistant from the
vertices of the triangle.
