Chinese Method of Multiplying
These are problems Teresa shared in class





Unit Rate and Scale Factor


Unit Rate is always talking about change in rate of a unit.  Change per one unit of measurement.

Scale Factor - if you know how much 2 gallons of gas is you can figure out how much 10 gallons of gas are.

Indirect Variation - not proportional



Percentages - 

25% of $100,000 = $75,000 - so, a loss of $25,000.  This is based off the amount I started with $100,000.  To increase $75,000  to $100,000 it's NOT and 25% increase it is a 33% increase because you are increasing from the amount started with $75,000.


Review for test
