RATIO AND PROPORTION - Color in the objects to correctly represent the ratio - Fill in the missing numbers and express the proportion as a fraction in its simplest form

Oct 22, 2026

Practice worksheet guiding students to color objects accurately based on given ratio statements. Each problem provides a ratio among three groups (fish, socks, bears, or candles), then asks learners to determine how many items correspond to the ratio. Students must also convert each part of the ratio into a fraction in simplest form, matching the computed proportions for every category shown in tables.
