1.) There are 24 hours in a day and scientists tell us that we should sleep for 3/8 of a day. How much time should we spend sleeping?

This is what I did for number 1:

2.)The National History Museum has collected 125 dinosaurs. George has collected 3/5 of of this amount. How many dinosaurs has George collected?

This is what I did for number 2:

3.) Mr.Murrin is 160cm tall and his brother Tom is 7/8 as tall as him. How tall is Tom?

This is what I did for question 3:

Tori1's 2nd Growingpost

Question 1

1)The stratiges needed were multiplying dividing fractions.
2)The stratages i used 4 the Test was multiplying and dividing fractions.
3)I would use a ratio table.
4) I would use a ratio table.



Question 2

Question 3

Question 4
Group 1 Sally Bob, Gidget and Biff Share 3 pizzas.


Group 2 Stan, Holly, Barry, Ben and Ichkabibble share 4 pizzas.

Group 3 Eric, Susy,James, Betty, Veronica and Moose share 5 pizzas.


Group 4 Paul, Alex, Chris, Jughead, Archie, Reggie, Mr. Wotherspoon and Midge share 7 pizzas.


How much pizza does each student get in the different groups? in group 1 they each get 3/4 of a peice, in group 2 each person gets a 19/20 , in group 3 each person gets 11/12 of a peice and in group 4 each person gets 4/4 of a peice.
Which group gets the largest portion of pizza? the group that gets the largest portion is Group 4 because they get a whole.

I found the answers by useing a pie chart and by dividing.

I used dividing and cutting a pie.

Question 1

1.)The Stratagies that were needed were a Ratio Table, I also multiplied, and divided.
2.)I tried to do clocks and a Ratio table
3.)First i made a Ratio table thats when I multiplied 2 2/5 to get 12 and i found out 1/2 by dividing 12.

4.)

5.)

Question 2

Robbie's 2nd Growing Post

1. What strategies were needed?
2. How did you use these strategies?
3. Or How could you of used these strategies.
4. How would you figure out the price of a 6 cup bag of Betty's Snack mix? Use a ratio table
5. Find 3 other values (amounts of Snack Mix) that could be solved using the same ratio table.
6. Find the $$ of your new container sizes

1.The strategies that were needed were a ratio table and division/multiplacation.
2. For the ratio table, I put cups on one side and money on the other side. Then multiplied 2 2/5 to get 12. Then found out it was times 5. Then did that to the money. Then divided to get 1/2 cups.
3. Another way to use this strategey is add 2 2/5 instead of multiplying them.
4. To get 6 cups you get 12 cups then divide it in 2. So it will equal 6 cups and do the same thing to the money so it will equal 9 dollars.
5 and 6. The numbers I chose was 1, 5, 10.
To get 1 cup I multipled the money so it will equal for 1 cup.
To get 5 cups I multiplied 1 cup and the money by 5 so it will = 5 cups worth.
To get 10 cups I multiplied 5 cups and the money by 2 to get 10 cups of stuff.

Question 3



QUESTION 4

Cedrics 2nd Growing post

I got it wrong the first time, but the second time I understand it, so here it is.

Questions:

1. What strategies were needed?
2. How did you use these strategies?
   
3. Or How could you of used these strategies.
4. How would you figure out the price of a 6 cup bag of Betty's Snack mix? Use a 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.

Answers:

1: The strategies I had used were ratio tables, division, multiplying, and adding

2 : I used this strategy to find out how much ingredients are needed and the cost of the cup.
I took 2 and 2/5 and multiplied by how much was needed to get 12. Which was by 5.
Heres a picture.

3. I could've used money or a ratio table, which was probably easier. ._.

4: I took 2 and 2/5 and multiplied it by 5 which got to 12 then to get to 6 cups I divided it by 2,
and on the price I did the same thing. 3.60 x 5 = 18.00 divided by 2 = 9.00.


5: The 3 other values are: 30, 3 and 60.

Question 2:


Question 3:
Today in class we reviewed the 6 strategies from the RACE Investigation. They were

• Equivalence
• Fractions show operations
• Ratio Tables (Proportional Reasoning)
• Measurement
• Partial Products or the Distributive Property
• The Whole Matters
  
• Friendly Fractions

Question 4:

Your last question deals with pizza. You need to explain which group gets the largest portion of pizza. All student groups get the same sized pizzas. It is up to you to cut them up so that they are shared equally.

1. Group 1 Sally Bob, Gidget and Biff Share 3 pizzas.
2. Group 2 Stan, Holly, Barry, Ben and Ichkabibble share 4 pizzas.
3. Group 3 Eric, Susy,James, Betty, Veronica and Moose share 5 pizzas.
4. Group 4 Paul, Alex, Chris, Jughead, Archie, Reggie, Mr. Wotherspoon and Midge share 7 pizzas.

QUESTION 1.
1.
The main strategies that I've used for the test were
division, multiplication, and addition. I used a ratio
table to organize my work so it would be easier for
people to understand. It's a really good tool to use when
your doing a project like this. (:

____________________________________


















4 con't.
Since I already knew what 12 cups equaled,
I just divided that by 2 because half of 12 is 6.
Then I divided everything else by 2 to get the
ingredients and price, as you can see above. :]

5.

THE END OF CHASELEY'S SECOND GROWING POST (:

Jessica's Second Growing Post

> Question One
1 . What strategies were needed?
The strategies that I used to correct my test were ratio tables, multiplying & dividing .
2 . How did you use these strategies?
On my real test, I regret that I thought that the only strategy that could be used was multiplying . Because when I saw that 2 2/5 x 5 was 12 (cups) , I just multiplied everything else by 5 , then I couldn't work with decimals so I didn't do the 1/2 cup question . I should have put everything in fraction form so it would look simpler .
3 . How could you of used these strategies.
I should have used more of dividing & ratio tables. if i could find out what 12 cups was by multiplying , i could have found out what 1/2 cup was by dividing . And to get there easily I should have used ratio tables to show my work more clearly .
4 . How would you figure out the price of a 6 cup bag of Betty's Snack mix? Use a ratio table.


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

>Question 2
You are going to create a voice thread explaining the strategies you used on your test. You need to choose 4 out of the 6 questions.



> Question 3
Today in class we reviewed the 6 strategies from the RACE Investigation. They were

• Equivalence
• Fractions show operations
• Ratio Tables (Proportional Reasoning)
• Measurement
• Partial Products or the Distributive Property
• The Whole Matters
  
• Friendly Fractions

Create a voice thread or write and use pictures to describe how you would uses those strategies to explain how far the two students would have run if Mark ran 7/8 and Rachel ran 11/12 of the RACE course.




> Question 4
Your last question deals with pizza. You need to explain which group gets the largest portion of pizza. All student groups get the same sized pizzas. It is up to you to cut them up so that they are shared equally.

4. Group 4 Paul, Alex, Chris, Jughead, Archie, Reggie, Mr. Wotherspoon and Midge share 7 pizzas.

+ For the first strategy i used pictures and fractions to get to the answer.
+ For the second strategy i used money to get to the answer . I changed the pizzas into dollars . So if there are 3 pizzas , its changed to $3.00 . Then , you divide the pizza into the people .

* How much pizza does each student get in the different groups?
* Which group gets the largest portion of pizza?
-----> The 4th group had the largest portion of pizza .
