Melissa's 2nd Growing Post

1.)What strategies were needed?

-the strategy i used was ratio table.

2)How did you use these strategies

- i used this to show what the cost of the cup and how many cups.

-For example if you divide the cup to 2 2/5 you also have to divided it to get the cost.(get it?)

3.)Or How could you of used these strategies.
-i could use this strategy in some problem solving like this.

4.)How would you figure out the price of a 6 cup bag of Betty's Snack mix? Use a ratio table

- we know that the 2 2/5 cup container cost $3.60. When you multiply the 2 2/5 cup to 5 your going to get 12 cups so divide 12 cups by 2 and it equals 6 cups. To get the cost you also have to multiply the cost of 2 2/5 cup by 5 and it equals 18. 18 divide by 2 equals 9. So $ 9.00 is the cost of the 6 cups .

5.)Find 3 other values (amounts of Snack Mix) that could be solved using the same ratio.

- i chose 18, 4, 2 cups

-for 18 cups i divided it to 9 and i also did the same thing for the cost.

- for 4 cups i divided 12 cups to 3 to get the 2 cup and i did the samething for the cost.

- for 2 cups i divided 18 to 9 to equal 2 cups and the samething for the cost.
