Ratio - Using Bar Models (B) WORKSHEET
Ratio - Using Bar Models (B) WORKSHEET DESCRIPTION
Bar models are used throughout this worksheet as a tool for students to divide amounts into given ratios.
The worksheet is scaffolded by including drawn bar models for sections A to D. The scaffolding is decreased as labels are removed and students have to label more of the bar models themselves.
In section B, learners will be dividing amounts into given ratios.
Section C asks students to use one known amount to find the second amount and in section D, the difference is known.
Finally, section E is made up of three questions and students must use an appropriate method to solve each one including constructing their own bar models.
All worksheets are created by the team of experienced teachers at Cazoom Maths.

Frequently Asked Questions
Bar models provide a visual representation that makes abstract ratio concepts concrete for young learners. They allow students to clearly see how amounts are divided proportionally and help them understand the relative sizes of two quantities. This visual approach is particularly effective when working with integer multiplication and division facts to find missing values.
