Lesson 6: Equivalent Ratios
Duration of Days: 1
Lesson Objective
- Students will be able to solve for equivalent ratios by using various strategies.
- How can we find equivalent ratios in the real world?
- Unit rate
- Scaling
- Equivalent
- Ratios
6.RP.3, 6.RP.3b
Use ratio and rate reasoning to solve real-world and mathematical problems, e.g., by reasoning about tables of equivalent ratios, tape diagrams, double number line diagrams, or equations.
- Solve unit rate problems including those involving unit pricing and constant speed. For example, if it took 7 hours to mow 4 lawns, then at that rate, how many lawns could be mowed in 35 hours? At what rate were lawns being mowed? DOK 1-3
