Grade 6: Ratio and Proportion (RP)

6.RP.A.1

Fully covered
Understand the concept of a ratio as comparing two quantities multiplicatively or joining/composing the two quantities in a way that preserves a multiplicative relationship. Use ratio language to describe a ratio relationship between two quantities. For example, "There were 2/3 as many men as women at the concert.”

6.RP.A.2

Fully covered
Understand the concept of a unit rate a/b associated with a ratio a : b with b ≠ 0, and use rate language (e.g., for every, for each, for each 1, per) in the context of a ratio relationship. (Complex fraction notation is not an expectation for unit rates in this grade level.)

6.RP.A.3.d

Fully covered
Use ratio reasoning to convert measurement units; manipulate and transform units appropriately when multiplying or dividing quantities.
