Ratio, proportion and percentages
This unit is from our archive and it is an adapted extract from Open mathematics (MU120) which is no longer in presentation. If you wish to study formally at The Open University, you may wish to explore the courses we offer in this subject area [Tip: hold Ctrl and click a link to open it in a new tab. (Hide tip)] .
The topics in this unit, ratios, proportion and percentages, are concerned with dividing something into parts. For example, if there are 200 people living in a small village, and 50 of these are children, this could be expressed as a percentage:
25% of the village population are children;
or as a ratio:
one in every four people is a child or there is 1 child for every three adults;
or a proportion:
the proportion of children in the village population is a quarter.
One difficulty that some people find with these topics is knowing when to multiply and when to divide. This module revises the relevant techniques and helps you to apply them logically.

To supplement my freelance/writing career, I recently took a job as a so-called "household manager" for a single dad and his lovely daughter Kate. Kate is six and about as sassy as they come. She is smart, supremely adorable and has become my best little sidekick in just one month's time. Part of my role as her caregiver involves preparing her meals. I can say with all honesty that this has become one of the most difficult aspects of my life at the moment. While Kate will eat a piece of salmon (doused in teriyaki sauce, of course) on occasion, her diet mostly consists of goldfish, chicken nuggets, mashed potatoes with mounds of butter and mac n' cheese. I'm a bonafide nutrition zealot, and these foods go against everything I believe in. What's a nanny (or parent for that matter) to do?!
What's even worse about this situation is that I've found myself nibbling on her leftovers. Not only is her little body not getting adequate nutrition but now mine has become a garbage dump too. Yikes. Something had to give. So I decided to turn it into a game. Namely, the Juicing Game. I explained that my cool silver juicer is the "board" and we can put whatever we want in it. Like an antioxidant rich version of "Easy Bake Oven," my juicer has become a veritable chemistry lab for Miss Kate. Sometimes the results are not so great, but usually things turn out okay and she loves to drink her "creations." This strategy is bound to work for any adventurous kids. Just follow a few guidelines below (based on trial and error) and I promise that your little one will be slurping down fresh pressed juice by the sippy-cup full.
The Juicing Game
1. Have your kids juice in the same color category. For example, they can do an all green juice (celery, kale, green apple, cucumber, etc…) or an orange/red juice (carrot, beet, etc…). Why follow this color-coded approach, you ask? Kids are more apt to consume substances in bright colors. Brown juice just won't fly. Trust me.
2. Start sweet. Let's be real… bitter veggie juice is hard for even us adults to choke down sometimes. Don't expect your kiddos to worship plain kale juice right from the start. It ain't gonna happen. Instead, start with palatable fruits that you know they'll love. Apples, carrots, watermelon, oranges and mangos are all good choices.
3. Supervise closely. Explain how your magic juicer works and the mechanisms involved – specifically a sharp spinning blade and basket. Make sure that your kids are always keeping their hands out of the chute (if you have a centrifugal juicer) and that the chopping of veggies and fruits should also be taken seriously and only handled by adults. Since Kate loves to "do everything," I combat this by chopping up the stuff while she's playing in another room.
4. Make cool stuff with your juice! One of the best ways to get your kids to love the process of juicing even more is to use your juice to create kid-friendly foods like popsicles, soups, etc. Not only will you feel great knowing that your child is getting tons of great nutrients, but you'll also be setting the little munchkin up for a lifetime of healthy food choices.

Reforestation in Jalal-Abad brings food-insecure families food, protection from environmental shocks and hopes for better incomes. Photo: WFP/Alima Nurgazieva
WFP Supports Intensive Reforestation Campaign in Kyrgyzstan's Jalal-Abad Province
Years of deforestation have left communities like that of Shaidan village in Kyrgyzstan's southwestern Jalal-Abad province suffering from environmental degradation and limited agriculture. Thousands of hectares of thicket that had once protected communities from natural disasters such as landslides have shrunk alarmingly due to uncontrolled felling of trees for heating and construction. Now, with help of cash assistance from WFP the residents are working to expand their forests and protect their livelihoods.

With limited federal aid, there is a widening gap between the cost of college and a student's ability to afford it. If your struggling for extra cash to pay for school, consider a Private Student Loan.

That means less out-of-pocket expenses until after graduation from Lorain County Voca Center.

I am now enjoying my career as a freelance marketing consultant with a remote team. My last post was about considering from a list in preparation for a life independent of the confining walls of an office. So far, the journey has been great. Let me share with you the necessary steps for a life that is geographically independent.
1. Assess and Build Your Freedom Fund
In short, I recommend building a fund which would certainly cover your expenditures entirely for a minimum of 6 months– bills, expenses, food, entertainment etc.
Your flexibility fund generally buys you time. If you don't have a profit-generating job working (or at the very least, making sufficient to cover your expenses) by the time you are determined to leave your task, you have to be reasonable regarding just how long it will take before your endeavor generates income. 6 months is pushing it, 12 is much safer.
If your task is profit-making by the time you leave your job, then your flexibility fund can be utilized to get air travels, fund some moves or perhaps invested back into the business to take it to the next level.
It's completely down to your own individual circumstances concerning exactly what and exactly how you may should make use of a fund such as this, but having one in the first place can be the difference between making it or not.
2. Make Space
In the chaotic merry-go-round of large (or small) city life, it is simple to drift daily, week to week, month to month and yes, year to year without offering on your own at any time and space to … just believe or be. If this implies not going out for 1 or 2 nights a week, or taking an entire weekend break to on your own every once in a while, do it. Do what it takes to provide on your own the space you have to think. Because it additionally suggests you'll be carving out the time to …
3. Build Your Personal Brand, it'll pay off..
In short, this indicates being known as the 'visit' source for something … whatever you determine your area of expertise/passion is. And in place independent terms, it typically means being the 'visit' destination online. Your individual brand name goes to the foundation of all your advertising efforts– and if you plan to take a trip and function from anywhere, it naturally pleads the question, "Should you develop this facet into your brand?".
Only do this clearly if you feel it will offer you an edge or some type of benefit. Similarly, never try and conceal it from consumers and customers.In all the years of running our business, we have never ever had a concern with someone not intending to work with us given that we were area independent.
It's quite easy when it comes to establishing your online visibility. You must:
- develop a web site of some kind, and perhaps a blog depending upon exactly what your business is.
- Profiles on the social networking sites devices which are most relevant and helpful to your business (i.e. the ones where your paying customers are).
- A subscriber list, which is the structure of many on the internet business who would like to market effectively and effectively.
4. Develop Yourself
Normally, you have to assume a number of roles as you set off by yourself. You put on a number of hats on a daily basis– press/PR spokesperson, marketing expert, copywriter, brand name planner, internet designer, train, consultant, writer, blog writer and more.
In the corporate world, there's always a lot of discuss 'transferable skills'– typically the softer skills as opposed to the content- or industry-specific skills. To be painfully straightforward, while several of the skills I created and refined in the work environment have actually served, it took me a few years years to identify precisely how they actually benefited me in my very own business– and by that phase, they 'd sort of come to be integrated into the brand-new stuff anyway.
The kinds of capabilities, frequently honed in the corporate world, that are useful as an entrepreneur, consist of:
Customer management-- the reasonable processes and well thought-out consumer encounter refines that are embeded numerous customer partnerships in the business world.
Decision-making processes– while these might be very various when running your own business, the truth that a decision-making process commonly exists (for nearly every little thing) in the corporate globe is a lesson many entreprenuers would do well to discover (and apply where necessary).
Strategic company consulting and training.
Innovation consulting and training.
5. Surround Yourself with Like-minded People
Location independence is a lifestyle. It implies you live it. Regularly. It is not something you dip your toe in and out of. Not if you desire it to help you on a permanent basis. When I claim "Surround on your own with similar folks", it resembles believing in a particular faith passionately, and going to a church where you recognize you'll be surrounded by people that comply with the exact same religion, credit the very same suitables as you, believe the like you do, discuss the exact same globe considered you and make the exact same huge life selections as you.
It coincides with entrepreneurship and place independence …It's as basic as attending events, visiting meet-ups with business owners, working out of co-working areas in your evenings and weekends … these days, especially in London and most global cities, you are literally spoiled for option. And online, you have actually got areas and proactive support groups. Invest as much time as you can bordered by the individuals which are already doing what you want to do.
Are you ready to be location independent?

WASHINGTON - The members of Team 26, the cyclists riding in honor of the 26 children and adults killed at Sandy Hook school in December, finished their trip to Capitol Hill Tuesday afternoon riding side by side with families of the Virginia Tech victims.
The group started their ride Saturday, one day after a winter storm that left Newtown under a blanket of snow. But organizer Monte Frank says the ride kicked off on a sparkling clear morning, and the riders enjoyed good weather until Tuesday.
A downpour started just before riders gathered at Proteus Bicycles shop in College Park, Md., as they grabbed one last orange slice or oatmeal cookie before the last part of their trip.
Although the rain battered the tents above the heads of cyclists waiting to start, it did nothing to dampen the spirits of the 26 riders.
"This is no ordinary training ride," said Andrea Myers, one of the participants. She then rolled up the sleeve of her cycling jersey to reveal a cluster of rubber bracelets.
"I have a bracelet with all the names of the victims of Sandy Hook. We're thinking of them, we're thinking of their parents, we're thinking of the people of Sandy Hook. This rain doesn't phase us at all," Myers said.
Before braving the rain-soaked last leg from College Park to the Capitol, Team 26 met up with a special group of fellow cyclists, those from the Virginia Tech Victims Family Outreach Foundation.
Omar Samaha, whose sister Reema was killed in the Virginia Tech shootings, spoke to the members of the Newtown group. He explained that as an avid cyclist, he started the Virginia Tech cycling group.
"Thank you to all of you for allowing us to join you. To be united with you guys today on this ride means a lot to us."
Samaha, who's been lobbying for what he calls sensible gun measures ever since losing his sister in 2007, says he's not trying to deny anyone their rights or to engage in a polarizing debate.
"We're not talking about guns here, we're talking about who's buying guns," he said.
Samaha says the push should be to find common ground. "All over the country, after Newtown, we see people really speaking out. And if there are certain things we can meet on, let's get that done."
The message "Just get it done" was echoed when Team 26 arrived on Capitol Hill and met with members Connecticut's congressional delegation. After a press conference at the U.S. Capitol, the team packed up their bikes and piled into the support vehicles that followed their two-wheeled trek from Connecticut.
But some, like Monte Frank, will stay overnight and keep working to lobby Congress.

Keyboard instruments > 2 Pianos, 4-hands
Ludwig van Beethoven
Rondo in B flat major WoO 6 for Piano and Orchestra
Editor: Hans-Werner Küthen
Piano reduction: Johannes Umbreit
Fingering: Andreas Groethuysen
15.00 €
Urtext Edition, Piano reduction, paperbound
orchestral material published by Breitkopf & Härtel
Two copies needed for performance
Pages: 23 (IV, 19), Size 23,5 x 31,0 cm
Order no. HN 1149 · ISMN M-2018-1149-9
The Rondo in B flat major was only published two years after Beethoven's death, in an arrangement by Carl Czerny. It has since been proven that it was originally the final movement of the Piano Concerto no. 2 op. 19, which Beethoven replaced in 1794/95 with the movement we know today. The fact that it closely resembled Mozart's style might have contributed to this decision. At any rate Beethoven kept the manuscript of the rondo all his life, showing its importance for him. Johannes Umbreit has prepared a new piano reduction that is easier to play and is based on the musical text in the Beethoven Complete Edition.

Cinnamon, chromium, and alpha-lipoic acid are dietary supplements that have been studied for diabetes management, but are not commonly found in daily multivitamins. Chromium* and cinnamon have the least supportive evidence of efficacy, while some studies have found alpha-lipoic acid to be promising, at least subjectively, in reducing the discomforts of peripheral neuropathy.
