We present a mathematical analysis that distinguishes two quantitative perspectives on ratios and proportional relationships: Multiple Batches and Variable Parts. We argue that (a) existing research on proportional relationships has addressed Multiple Batches but has largely overlooked Variable Parts, (b) Multiple Batches makes the co-variation…
