Problems involving ratios 2 Grade 4 Solutions Objective: Solve problems involving ratios, e.g. conversion, comparison, scaling, mixing, concentrations

Question 1

On a farm

the number of cows and the number of sheep are in the ratio 6 : 5 the number of sheep and the number of pigs are in the ratio 2 : 1

The total number of cows, sheep and pigs on the farm is 189

How many sheep are there on the farm?

6 : 5 = 12: 10

2:1 = 10 : 5 M1

C : S : P

12 : 10 : 5 M1

Build-a-mix makes concrete.

1 cubic metre of concrete has a weight of 2400 kg.

15% of the concrete is water.

The rest of the ingredients of concrete are cement, sand and stone. The weights of these ingredients are in the ratio 1 : 2 : 5

Work out the weight of cement, of sand and of stone in 1 cubic metre of concrete.

× 2400 = 360 M1

2400 – 360 = 2040

2040 ÷ 8 = 255 M1

1 × 255 = 255 kg cement

2 × 255 = 510 kg sand A2 for all three correct answers

5 × 255 = 1275 kg stone

cement = . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . kg
