Erick's Second Growing Post

1. What strategies were needed?
The strategies needed were a simple ratio table, multiplication addition and division.
2 How did you use these strategies?
I first got the information I knew. So i had 2 2/5 cups which was $3.60. Then i kept adding 3.60 to my answers each time so it would be like 3.60 + 3.60= 7.20 then 7.20 + 3.60= 10.80. Then i did the same thing on the fraction of 2 2/5, so it would be like 2 2/5 + 2/25 = 4 4/5, and so on.When I got 12 cups it was $18. I divided 12 by 12 to get 1. Then I divided 1 by to to get the half.
3 Or How could you of used these strategies?
I could of multiplied 2 2/5 by 5 to get 12 and 3.60 by 12 to get 18.00.
4 How would you figure out the price of a 6 cup bag of Betty's Snack mix? Use a ratio table
( LOOK AT THE OTHER RATIO TABLE)
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.
