SAT Ratios, Rates, and Proportions Worksheet
Ratios, rates, and proportions appear in word problems throughout both modules. The skill is about setting up a clean proportion and carefully tracking units. This worksheet page turns that skill into a focused review asset: what to know, what to practice, and what to check before moving on.
What this worksheet covers
Ratios, Rates, and Proportions belongs to the Problem-Solving and Data Analysis domain on the Digital SAT Math section.
Use this as a one-skill worksheet before timed modules. The goal is not just to get questions right, but to recognize the pattern quickly under SAT timing.
- Official skill: Ratios, rates, proportional relationships, and units
- Section: Math
- Domain: Problem-Solving and Data Analysis
- Best use: focused drill session before a timed module
Rules to remember
Before drilling this skill, memorize the core rules below and keep them next to your scratch work.
- Write units beside every number — cancel units like variables.
- Cross-multiply only after you've verified the two ratios compare the same quantities.
- For percent change, use (new − old) / old × 100.
Practice routine
Start untimed until you can explain the pattern. Then switch to timed sets so the skill holds up inside a full module.
- Do 10 warmup questions and write down every mistake type.
- Do 20 timed questions from the same skill.
- Review missed questions without looking at the explanation first.
- Repeat the misses 48 hours later to confirm the fix stuck.

FAQs
How do I practice SAT ratios, rates, and proportions?
Drill ratios, rates, and proportions as its own skill first, then mix it into timed modules. Isolated practice builds the pattern; timed modules prove you can use it under pressure.
Is ratios, rates, and proportions important on the Digital SAT?
Yes. It is part of the official Problem-Solving and Data Analysis domain for the SAT Math section, so it can appear on real test forms.
Should I review explanations after every question?
Review every missed or guessed question. Correct guesses still hide weak reasoning, and weak reasoning becomes expensive on hard Module 2.
