12. Guidelines…..

13. Task……..
Stop: You may not use calculators, paper or pencils on this task. Reason as to which restaurant would be the better choice.
With your partner, decide how you would model your solution mathematically.
4 x 200 > 3 x

14. Standards for Mathematical Practice?
#2 Reason abstractly and quantitatively
#3 Construct viable arguments and critique the reasoning of others
#4 Model with mathematics
#8 Look for and express regularity in repeated reasoning

15. Part C: Make the Dessert

16. The Recipe…

17. The Standard….
5.NBT.6 requires students to “solve real world problems involving multiplication of fractions and mixed numbers, e.g. by using visual fraction models or equations to represent the problem.”

18. Task…..
