Unit Rate

We began working on Unit Rate in class today. We reviewed our notes and worked on some example problems.

Tonight's homework is to complete the first 5 problems on the word problems side and the first 8 problems on the Unit Rate side. We completed the first on each in class today.

Tomorrow we will spend some time completing other Unit Rate problems and looking for real life comparisons.

Unit Rate

We began working with Unit Rates in math class today.

The short version...

If I buy a six pack of soda for $1.80, the rate is 6 sodas for $1.80, but the unit rate is $0.30 per soda.

From hotmath.com

After briefly talking about various ways that we could solve for and determine unit rate, we each began working with a Stop and Shop circular to find food and other items that were being sold by the pound or at a group rate (3 for $9.99).  We will continue our activity on Monday as we plan a meal for our families using unit rates and purchasing items in multiple values.

Have a great weekend and remember that we have our quiz on Wednesday!
