Ratios and Relationships
A ratio is just a relationship between two quantities, but the SAT finds creative ways to make that simple idea feel complicated. You'll see ratios hidden inside tables, word problems, and unit conversions. The core skill is always the same: set up a proportion and solve.

Watch out for questions that give you a part-to-part ratio when you need part-to-whole, or vice versa. If the ratio of cats to dogs is 3:4, the fraction of cats isn't 3/4. It's 3/7. Mixing this up is one of the most common errors, and the SAT will always include that wrong answer as a choice.
