FAQ

How do I use this proportions worksheet?

Begin with the drills, then move to matching and word problems. Use the puzzles as a fun check and the error finding sheet for review.

What does this worksheet teach?

⌄

Solve multi-step proportion problems about soup, a train and a map, then match each answer to its letter. The directions on the page read: Show your work. Find each answer in the top row. Write its letter in the box. An answer key is included.

Can I use this proportions worksheet for homeschool or classroom?

⌄

Yes, both. We made it for 7th grade ratios, and it works the same at home or at school. At home, a student can work through it alone and then go over it with you, which shows quickly what is solid and what needs another look. In class it works as independent practice, homework or a warm-up, and you can print one copy or a full set.

How do you solve a proportion?

⌄

Cross multiply, then divide to find x. Solve Proportions With Variable in Any Position has students show their work and write x on a line.

What if a proportion has fractions or decimals?

⌄

The method is the same, and the answers are whole numbers or decimals. Solve Proportions With Fractions and Decimals practices this, and the setup sheet with fractional units practices choosing the right proportion.

How do students set up a proportion from a word problem?

⌄

They match the quantities so the same units line up on the same side. The two matching sheets ask students to pick the proportion that fits, and one has two proportions that are not used.

Are there puzzles?

⌄

Yes. Solve Proportions to Decode a Math Term and Solve Proportions to Shade a Hidden Shape use the answers to finish a puzzle.
