7. Last week we talked about writing equations that compare numbers using multiplication. Like, 3 times as many as 4 is 12. This week we are going to solve word problems that compare. Take a look!

8. Hannah scored 3 goals last season. She scored 4 times as many goals this season. How many goals did Hannah score this season? Last SeasonThis Season How many goals did Hannah score last season? How could you skip count to find the number she scored this season? Besides addition, what operation can you use to solve this problem? What is 4 times as many as 3? Modeling

9. Review and revisit:

10. Now let’s try with an unknown amount. Juan found 3 times as many seashells at the beach as Jeremy found. Juan found 24 shells. Write and solve an equation to find the number of shells Jeremy found. 1 st Let’s model what you know.  Jeremy found one group of shells. Juan found 3 times as many shells. Jeremy’s Shells Juan’s Shells 2 nd Write an equation to help understand the problem.  3 x Jeremy’s shells= Juan’s shells  3 x J= 24 Ask yourself, 3 times what is 24. or Divide 24 by 3 to find the number in each group: 8 ? ? ?? 24 Modeling
