Let's match each term with its corresponding definition.

1. Ratio - A comparison of two quantities by division.

   • Ratios compare two quantities by showing how many times one value contains or is contained within the other.

2. Equivalent Ratios - Ratios that express the same relationship between quantities.

   • Equivalent ratios are different fractions that represent the same relationship or proportion.

3. Unit Rate - A rate in which the second quantity in the comparison is one unit.

   • A unit rate is a comparison to a single unit, for instance, "miles per hour."

4. Rate - A ratio that compares two quantities with different units.

   • Rates are used when two different types of measurements are compared, like speed (miles per hour) or price per item.

5. Percent - A ratio that compares a number to 100.

   • Percentages are ratios out of 100, making it easier to compare relative sizes.
