1. Grade 5, Chapter 4, Lesson 5 Real-World Problems: Multiplying with Mixed Numbers Solve real-world problems involving multiplication of whole numbers and mixed numbers.

2. What do you know about these problems?

3. What do we do when we solve word problems? Read the problem What do I have to answer? Re-read each sentence and draw the bar models, label the units. Adjust the bars as necessary. Place your question mark. Check your diagram. Write the equations to solve the problems, solve the problem Check your answer. (Plug value back into the diagram. Check the arithmetic.)

6. Compare the methods What is the difference between these two methods? Which method do you think is easier? Why? Do you think both methods will always work for all problems? Why?
