Lesson 56: Rates
Today we discussed and practiced with rates. We learned that rates are a type of ratio, and that certain formulas can be used to find specific rates, such as mileage or speed.
Assignment: (due tomorrow)
Students need to write and illustrate 3 different rate problems.
1. for speed
2. for mileage
3. for an exchange rate
*Today's tip: choose numbers that divide evenly and make sure you are asking a question in each problem, not just giving out information!!*
On a seperate piece of paper, include
1. the formula needed to solve each problem
2. the steps in solving each problem
3 the correct answer for each problem
