Proportions

Losing your sense of proportion? Regain it with this BrainPOP UK movie, as Tim and Moby teach you all about ratios or proportions! As an example, you’ll learn how to work out the price of a cinema ticket in proportion to an average monthly income — and how to compare it to prices from earlier decades. In this educational, animated movie you’ll also learn how to set up a proportion problem, including where to put the “x” and how to cross-multiply in order to get the right answer. Finally, you’ll see how proportions can be used in any number of real-life situations. You really should keep things in proportion!
