Errol's Sesame Street Video

A ratio compares two quantities measured in different units.
Ex. 3:12 three glasses of milk to twelve cookies

A rate compares quantities measured in different units.
Ex. 3/mph three miles per hour


Proportional Reasoning is a relationship that says that two ratios or two rates are equal.
Ex. 3/12 = 6/24
