- [Substituting into Formulae](https://ai.page/c/substituting-into-formulae/index.md): Substitute numerical values into formulae and expressions including scientific formulae; evaluate expressions by replacing variables with given values and computing the result using correct order of operations

## 7. Grade 6 · Represent: Students will represent ratios and rates on the coordinate plane.

- [Proportion](https://ai.page/c/proportion/index.md): Recognise and solve problems involving direct proportion (as one quantity increases, the other increases at a constant rate) and inverse proportion (as one increases, the other decreases), including graphical and algebraic representations
- [Plotting points in the first quadrant](https://ai.page/c/plotting-points-in-the-first-quadrant/index.md): Plot and read ordered pairs in the first quadrant of the coordinate plane; represent real-world and mathematical problems by graphing points and interpreting coordinate values in context

## 8. Grade 6 · Ratios and Rates: Students will understand the concept of ratios and unit rates, use language to describe the relationship between two quantities, and use ratios and unit rates to solve auth

- [Ratio Notation](https://ai.page/c/ratio-notation/index.md): Use ratio notation to describe the relationship between two or more quantities, simplify ratios to their simplest form, and convert between ratio and fraction representations
- [Percentages (age 9+)](https://ai.page/c/percentages-age-9/index.md): Know and use the vocabulary of ratio and proportion — ratio, proportion, percentage, scale, equivalent, unequal, relative size, part-to-part, part-to-whole, and out of — and understand the difference between ratio (comparing parts to parts) and proportion (comparing a part to the whole)

## 9. Grade 6 · Operations: Students will compute with fractions and decimals accurately.

- [Ratio (age 11+)](https://ai.page/c/ratio-age-11/index.md): Use conventional notation for the priority of operations including brackets, powers, roots, and reciprocals; apply BIDMAS/BODMAS consistently to evaluate complex numerical expressions
