Ratio, Proportion and Percent

Ratio, Proportion, and Percent is a mathematical topic that compares quantities. Because the GED Math test focuses on checking your ability to apply math to real-life settings, you can expect word problems that ask you to find the ratio, proportion or percentage as these are used in everyday life.

A ratio is a comparison of two different quantities. For example, if strawberries cost $5/kg, oranges $2/kg, and grapes $4/kg, then the ratio of these prices can be expressed as 5:2:4. Ratio word problems usually ask you to compare two quantities or to determine proper allocation.

A proportion is an equation showing that two ratios are equal. A percent or percentage is a ratio or number expressed as a fraction of 100. Three percent, for example, is really a ratio that means 3 per 100.

Ratio, Proportion, and Percent are often used in cooking, shopping, and financial transactions and other real-life situations.

What to Expect from the Ratio, Proportion, and Percent GED Practice Test

In this GED practice test, you will be asked to answer word problems to check and build your understanding of ratio, proportion, and percent. The questions here might ask you to:
