equivalent ratio

It can be written two ways; for example, 1:10 or 1/10. Equivalent ratios (which are, in effect, equivalent fractions) are two ratios that express the same relationship between numbers. We can create equivalent ratios by multiplying or dividing both the numerator and denominator of a given ratio by the same number.

This equation does not give us the value of the unknown factor but gives us a equivalent ratio between two unknowns.

equivalry

Portmanteau of "equality" and "chivalry". When a woman demands equality from men in the workplace (or other social situations) then expects chivalry from them the rest of the time....like when a spider needs squished or when the strange noise from downstairs in the middle of the night needs to be investigated.

Linda won't admit she expects equivalry because she is going for department head, but she really dressed Christopher down this morning for leaving the toilet seat up.

Equivalent Dickschange

The act of one person being a dick to another person after having been first treated in a dickish manner that they did not deserve to be treated in.

I was hanging out with my friend the other day, and all of a sudden he began acting like a major dickbag towards me. He persisted, despite me trying to ignore his behavior so I was forced to start making short jokes. His feelings got hurt, but I don't feel bad because I was merely demonstrating the art of equivalent dickschange.
