Jomarie's Second Growing Post

Question 1
Use this picture and reflect on your the puppy kibble test.

1) What strategies were needed?
The stratagies that were needed were a ratio table because on one side you can put the price and the other side is the cups.

2) How did you use these strategies?
I didnt really do a ratio table but it is similar.
Like for the 12C, we know that 2 2/5 = $3.60 I just kept adding 2 2/5 to get close to 12. Then whatever answer I got to get to 12 by just adding 2 2/5 repeatedly I did the same thing with the price.

3) Or How could you of used these strategies.
You could use these stratagies with many things like fraction problems.

4) How would you figure out the price of a 6 cup bag of Betty's Snack mix? Use a ratio table
If I use the ratio table I would do 12C = $18.00 (from the test) then under it, it would be 6C = $........
What I would do is divided it 12C by 2 to get 6C because we all know that 6 is half of 12. Then we do the same thing to the price, $18.00 divided it by 2 which equals $9.00. There is your answer.

5) Find 3 other values (amounts of Snack Mix) that could be solved using the same ratio table. Find the $$ of your new container sizes.

I think GroupD got the larger portion of pizza.

What strategies did you use in finding your answer.
I used the clock way.
