What strategies were needed?

I think the strategies that were need was ratio tables.

How did you use these strategies? Or How could you of used these strategies?

I used a ratio table as my strategies having cups on one side and money in the other. To figure out the answer, whatever you do on one side you do the same to the other. Like if I multilplied in the on the cups side I have to do the same on the other side.

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

Since I knew how much 12 cups was, I just divided by 2 and got my answer. Since I did that with my cups I have to do that with the money.

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

The 3 that I used were 3, 1, and 1/3. I just used what I knew and divide by 2 and 3.
