A ratio is nothing but another representation of a fraction. Thus, a ratio compares two different quantities. An example of ‘x’ and ‘y’ variables is x : y or x/y. The x and y here can be variables or known quantities. Now, what is a proportion? A proportion shows equality between two different ratios. Proportions are used to help us to match up equivalent ratios and determine any unknown quantities in the equation.

The questions on ratios and proportions test the candidate on their skills in writing equivalent ratios to determine unknown quantities, proficiency in solving ratios related word problems, and similarly, proficiency in cracking word problems involving proportions.
