Jennifer's Rate Growing Post

Ratio-a way to compare 2 quantities, sort of like a fraction but only sideways . example: (a word ratio) pandas to raccoons (a regular number ratio) 3:10

Rate- when you compare 2 things in different units. example: $12/per hour

The difference between rate and ratio is rate compares two quantities measured in different units and ratio compares two quantities measured in same units.
