Answer:
5.) Proportionality is 3/1 or 3 simplified
- b x 3 = p
- b= boxes
- p= pens in box
6.) Proportionality is 1/6
- m ÷ 6 = p
- m = muffins
- p= pack(s) of muffins
Step-by-step explanation:
You would take the first column (or in this case row (pens and packs) and place the 2nd row under it in fraction form.
That would be your proportion
Then you would (in place of numbers) use letters to symbolize in the equation
- 5.) p = pens: b= boxes
- 6.) m= muffins; p= pack
Then create an equation to figure out how to get the correct numbers.
- 1 box holds 3 pens so:
- 5.) b x 3 = p
- Check: 2 boxes x 3 pens per box = 6 pens (check table) Correct!
- 6 muffins in 1 pack so:
- 6.) m ÷ 6 = p
- 12 muffins ÷ 6 muffins in per box = 2 packs (check table) Correct!
