Lesson 7.1.3 – Teacher Notes Standard: 7.RP.A.3 Use proportional relationships to solve multistep ratio and percent problems. Examples: simple interest, tax, markups and markdowns, gratuities and commissions, fees, percent increase and decrease, percent error. 7.EE.A.2 Understand that rewriting an expression in different forms in a problem context can shed light on the problem and how the quantities in it are related. For example, a + 0.05a = 1.05a means that "increase by 5%" is the same as "multiply by 1.05." Lesson Focus: The focus of the lesson is to rewrite an expression in different forms in a problem context used in solving real-world problems. The questions are balanced between one-step and multi-step. I can investigate and solve real-world rational number word problems. Calculator: No Literacy/Teaching Strategy: Teammates consult.
