Ratio & Proportion: Crack Every Edexcel Question
Description
A focused revision video for GCSE Maths students tackling Edexcel exam papers. Using clear painterly visuals and step-by-step worked examples, the video breaks down the two most common ratio and proportion question types — sharing in a ratio and the unitary method — showing exactly how to lay out working for maximum marks.
Summary
The video opens by establishing why ratio and proportion matters — it appears on every single Edexcel GCSE Maths paper. It then defines what a ratio is and introduces the golden rule: always simplify first. The first worked example walks through sharing £60 in the ratio 3:2, showing the full method — add the parts, divide to find one part, then multiply. The check step is shown explicitly, reinforcing how Edexcel expects working to be presented. The second worked example covers direct proportion using the unitary method: if 4 pens cost £2.80, find the cost of one pen first, then scale up to 7. The video closes with a three-step exam technique reminder — simplify, find one part, scale — and lands on the key message: showing every step is where the marks live.
