How may ratios and percentages be applied to real-world math problems?
Ratios and percentages are employed everywhere, from comparing amounts to figuring out proportions in recipes, unit conversions, and scaling problems.
Sometimes it can be difficult to decide which approach makes calculations easier or more accurate.
How do you decide between applying ratios and percentages to solve practical issues? Are there any techniques or examples that make it easier to apply these concepts?
