Let's compare 7/11, 6/10, and 8/12.  The LCM is 660.  Is there another way to compare ratios to find which basketball player has the best shot completion ratio?
    
RATIO = A comparison of two quantities by division.
- example: 8 shots made for every 12 shots attempted; 8/12 or 8:12 or 8 to 12.

RATE = A ratio using two quantities with different units.
- example: Miles per gallon - (Gasoline cost $2.85 per gallon)
                  Dollars per pound (Apples cost $3.29 per pound)
