    INCREASE AND DECREASE

    IN A GIVEN RATIO
    If you want to increase $85 in the ratio 7 : 5 there are two possible methods.

    Method 1 Method 2

    7
    5 parts = $85 $85   $119
    5
    1 part = $85 ÷ 5 = $17

    7 parts = 7 × $17 = $119

    So answer is $119
    Example
    1 Decrease 120 kg in the ratio 19 : 20.

    Method 1 Method 2

    19
    20 parts = 120 kg 120   114 kg
    20
    1 part = 120 kg ÷ 20 = 6 kg

    19 parts = 19 × 6 kg = 114 kg

    So answer is 114 kg
    Example
    2

    15 cm

    20 cm

    A photo measures 20 cm by 15 cm. The photo is enlarged in the ratio 8 : 5.


    a Calculate the measurements of the enlarged photo.
    b Write down and simplify the ratio
    area of enlarged photo : area of original photo
    8 8
    a 20   32 cm 15   24 cm
    5 5
    note:
    b area of original photo = 15 x 20 = 300 cm2
    82 : 52 = 64 : 25
    area of enlarged photo = 32 x 24 = 768 cm2

    area of enlarged photo : area of original photo =768 : 300 = 64 : 25


    Example
    3 A company sells regular size
    boxes of washing powder. washing washing
    They decide to make a large powder 24 cm
    size box by increasing the powder
    dimensions in the ratio 5 : 4.
    REGULAR
    a Calculate the measurements 8 cm LARGE
    20 cm
    of the large box.
    b Write down and simplify the ratio
    volume of large box : volume of regular box

    5 5 5
    a 20   25 cm 8  10 cm 24   30 cm
    4 4 4
    b volume of regular box = 20 x 8 x 24 = 3840 cm3 note:
    53 : 43 = 125 : 64
    volume of large box = 25 x 10 x 30 = 7500 cm 3

    volume of large box : volume of regular box = 7500 : 3840 = 125 : 64


    Example
    4 This tablecloth shrinks when it is washed.
    The length decreases in the ratio 74 : 75.
    The width decreases in the ratio 89 : 90. width =
    180 cm
    a Calculate the measurements of the
    tablecloth after it is washed.
    length = 225 cm
    b Write down and simplify the ratio
    area of tablecloth before washing : area of tablecloth after washing

    74 89
    a length  225   222 cm width  180   178 cm
    75 90
    b area before washing = 180 x 225 = 40 500 cm2

    area after washing = 222 x 178 = 39 516 cm2

    area before washing : area after washing = 40 500 : 39 516

    = 3375 : 3293
