  • In this video, I was a addressing multiple things: When and where you can find proportions, and an example of an everyday situation where you might come across  a proportion.
  • Here is the scenario:  There are two gas stations, for one gas station you can get six gallons of gas for $1.50.  The other gas station, you can get four gallons of gas for one dollar.                                                                                    I figured it out by putting the price of the gas over the gallons.  That would be 1.5/6 for the first one and 1/4 for the second.  They both equal .25=one quarter.  So the overall answer would be, whichever gas station is closer, would the better one.
