Hat sizes are determined by measuring the circumference of one's head in inches or centimeters. Use ratio and proportion to complete the table.
hat size: 7, ?
Head Circumference(to nearest 1/5in): 22, ?
Head Cir (to nearest centimeter): 56, 54
---
Hat Size::::
7/56 = ?/54
? = 54(7/56)
? = 6.75
----------
Head Circumference ?
?/54 = 22/56
---
? = 54(22/56)
? = 21 1/5 inchch
