use and repetition of ratios and proportions as my major theme in chemistry. Throughout this sequence of instruction, my goal was for the students to seamlessly tie mathematics into the science curriculum. I wanted students to recognize the interconnectedness of the two subjects by emphasizing the association of ratios throughout chemistry and to realize the importance of ratios in real life. Ratios are found in all aspects of life and I wanted to open their eyes to this. Ratios are use in discounts

Often, when examined carefully, you may find a common “coincidence” between man made objects and those found naturally in nature.

Although, some industry leaders caution in the use and
other the division of a line into extreme and mean ratio. Golden Ratio is found by dividing a line into two parts so that the longer part divided by the smaller part equals the whole length divided by the longer part. It is also known as the extreme and mean ratio. Golden ratio is very similar to Pi because it is an infinite number and it goes on forever. It is usually rounded to around 1.618. The formula for golden ratio is a/b = (a+b)/b. Golden Ratio is a number that has been around for many years
