Go from feet to inches to yards and back again with this notes and learning exercise combo resource. Several pages of examples regarding unit conversion of the English system are given, followed by different pages of problems. There is a...

Learners discover how to use the knowledge of unit rates to understand equivalent ratios and solve real-world problems. They are given word problems to solve using equivalent ratios. Tables are also covered in this resource.

In this unit rate worksheet, students solve 6 problems in which the unit rate in a consumer math story problem is calculated. There are no examples or instructions.

Building on knowledge from the previous instructional activity, the second instructional activity in this unit teaches scholars to identify and interpret rate of change and initial value of a linear function in context. They investigate...

Find the faster rate. The resource tasks the class to compare proportional relationships represented in different ways. Pupils find the slope of the proportional relationships to determine the constant rates. They then analyze the...

Which requires more water--a bath or a shower? Given some specific criteria, learners attempt to answer the question. A video shows how long it takes to fill a gallon container using a faucet and a shower head. Using that information and...

Compare the ratio of genders in classes with a lesson that revisits ratio terminology. After finding the ratio of boys and girls, the class then finds the time it takes to pass out papers and determines the associated rates.

Participate in a class lesson plan on ratio, rate, and unit rate. Successful usage of this lesson plan requires the pupils and the teacher have access to the Scott Foresman/Addison Wesley Middle School math text. However, the unit rate...

Seventh-graders solve 20 various types of problems related to ratio and rate. They write ratios in simplest form for each given statement, to compare the area of two figures, and write two ratios equivalent to each ratio. Pupils express...

The lesson plan provides a richly detailed narrative and sample problems for teaching or reinforcing how to work with percentages. In particular, your audience will compute the costs per serving of food and simulate setting menu prices...

How does an input affect an output? Assess your learners' ability to answer this question using this pre-test. Scholars answer questions about the basics of a function. Topics include determining if a table or statement represents a...

Ratios are all around you. A fun interactive has scholars investigate ratios and proportions in different situations. These include creating bracelets with different ratios of beads, mixing paint, adjusting the length and width of a...

What proportion of learners will benefit from the lessons on proportional reasoning? Class members learn about proportional relationships, from unit rates to writing equations for proportional relationships. Then, they learn to use...

Go with the flow and use a helpful resource. A set of two activities has learners investigate flow rates. They first determine the flow rate of a faucet by measuring how long it takes to fill a bucket. Using the results, they make a...

After reading a one-page passage on how to understand and solve distance/rate problems, young mathematicians answer six word problems that have them correctly set up the formula in order to solve for the distnace, rate, or time in the...

Capture the engagement of young mathematicians with this upper-elementary math lesson on measuring time and distance. Using Google Maps, students first measure and compare the distance and time it takes to travel between different...

In this unit rate learning exercise, students read story problems, determine important information, and write equations to solve the problem. Problems include distance, rate, cost per pound, and total cost. This one-page learning...

In this unit rate worksheet, students read story problems and determine the unit rate. They set up equations to solve proportion, percent and mixture problems. This one-page worksheet contains seven story problems.

In this unit rates worksheet, 6th graders solve 10 different problems that include determining the rate of various events. First, they determine the number of letters in a particular number of messages. Then, students determine the...

High schoolers analyze environmental science data using Math. They do research about renewable energy, gather data, create graphs and interpret their findings. Then the group presents their arguments persuasively using their findings to...

It's nice to know that there are actual real-world uses of derivatives. Scholars review their knowledge of the applications of derivatives from the unit. They work on a set of practice problems to test their understanding.

It's time to put analytical applications to work. Learners use the eight questions of the mid-Unit 5 review to refresh their memories of the key points. Pupils apply what they have learned to use the Mean Value Theorem, find extrema...

How fast is your class? Learners determine the amount of time it takes individuals to walk a given distance and calculate their speeds. Pupils solve distance, rate, and time problems using the formula and pay attention to the...

How many boys are in the class? Here is an introductory exercise describing ratios. The commentary shows different ways learners can approach the problem, using a tape diagram of boys to girls and using a table. The activity includes...
