Formula Reference Sheet
This chapter
Ratio essentials
| Ratio of a to b | a : b = a/b (b ≠ 0) |
|---|---|
| Scaling a ratio | a : b = ka : kb for any k ≠ 0 |
| Compound ratio | (a:b) × (c:d) = ac : bd |
| Duplicate / triplicate | a²:b² (duplicate), a³:b³ (triplicate) |
| Dividing N in a:b | shares = aN/(a+b) and bN/(a+b) |
Proportion & variation
| Proportion | a:b = c:d ⇒ a×d = b×c (product of extremes = product of means) |
|---|---|
| Mean proportional of a, b | √(ab) |
| Third proportional to a, b | b²/a |
| Fourth proportional to a, b, c | bc/a |
| Direct variation | y = kx (y/x constant) |
| Inverse variation | y = k/x (xy constant) |
