CCSSM National Professional Development Ratios and Proportions Grades 6/7 Sara Anaya Ayşe Şahin Diana White

7 th Grade 6. RP. 1 - Definition of ratio 6. RP. 2 - Unit rate(s) associated to ratio 7. RP. 1 – Unit Rates associated with ratios (with fractions and decimals) Whole numbers (6. RP. 3) Given a proportional relationship represent it a variety of ways: . A table. Plotting points on a coordinate graph. . Tape diagrams. Double number line diagrams. 6. RP. 3 –Use ratios and rate reasoning to solve (single step)real world mathematical problems using the representations above and Using the unit rate c. See % as a rate 7. RP. 2. Using the representations from 6 th grade a. Decide whether two quantities are in a proportional relationship. b. Identify the constant of proportionality 7. RP. 3 Use proportional relationships to solve (multi-step) ratios and percent problems. d. Ratio reasoning and manipulating units by multiplying and dividing 7. RP. 2 c. Represent proportional 6 th graders are not asked to express proportional relationships algebraically relationships by equations. d. Understanding the proportional relationship on a graph most importantly (0, 0) and (1. r)

3 6. RP. 1: The language of ratio and proportion • An example of how to introduce the notion of a ratio: – Illustrative Mathematics 6. RP. 1 Task example: • Games at recess Anaya, Şahin, White

4 6. RP. 2 and 7. RP. 1 • This recipe has a ratio of 3 cups of flour to 4 cups of sugar. • How many cups of flour would you use for 1 cup of sugar? – Answer this question using as many different methods as possible. Anaya, Şahin, White

Changing the problem slightly, a double number line becomes an appropriate representation: This recipe calls for 3 tablespoons of butter for every 4 cups of sugar. How many tablespoons of butter would you use for 1 cup of sugar? 0 tbs 3 tbs 0 c 4 c Tablespoons Cups Author's Name IM&E CCSSM National PD

0 tbs ? tbs 3 tbs 0 c 4 c Tablespoons Cups 1 c • Using double number lines we directly translate the problem into asking: what is 3 /4? • (Standard 5. NF. 3) ¾ tbs of butter for every cup of sugar. Author's Name IM&E CCSSM National PD

10 • This recipe has a ratio of 3 cups of flour to 4 cups of sugar. – How many cups of sugar would you use for 1 cup of flour? Solve this problem using a method you did not use for the previous question. Anaya, Şahin, White

11 7 th Grade Unit Rate Problem • This recipe calls for ¾ cup of flour for every ½ cup of sugar. How many cups of flour would you use for every 1 cup of sugar? Answer this question using as many different methods as possible. Anaya, Şahin, White

12 • This recipe calls for ¾ cup of flour for every ½ cup of sugar. How many cups of flour would you use for every 1/4 cup of sugar? Answer this question using as many different methods as possible. Anaya, Şahin, White

13 6. RP. 3 and 7. RP. 3 • Suppose Abby’s orange paint is made by mixing 1 cup red paint for every 3 cups yellow paint and Zack’s orange paint is made by mixing 3 cups red for every 5 cups yellow. Whose paint is yellower? Anaya, Şahin, White

14 7 th Grade Extension • Suppose Abby makes orange paint by mixing 1 cup red paint for every 3 cups yellow paint. She can only find 100 cups of the red paint, and as much of the yellow paint as she likes. How many cups of orange paint can she make? Answer this question using as many different methods as possible. Anaya, Şahin, White
