Example 1: $Math - Ratio (Division)$ , Variables A and B change in direct proportion to each other. Variable "A" is proportional to Variable "B". $The ratio 'A' is to 'B'$ Is equivalent to $A divided by B$ Because this is a ratio, the quotient of A divided by B is a constant value regardless of what the actual values of A and B are: $The ratio 'A' is to 'B'$

Example 2: $Math - Ratio (Division)$ , It takes two cups of berries to bake one berry pie. (It takes four cups of berries to bake two berry pies. It takes six cups of berries to bake three berry pies. It takes eight cups of berries to bake four berry pies. . . . and, so on . . .) It always takes two cups of berries for every pie.

The ratio is two to one, regardless of the number of pies baked.
