Answers and reasoning

Reveal the teacher answer key
  1. 1

    Each small part is 1/10; 9 shaded parts divided into groups of 9 gives 9/9 = 1 groups.

  2. 1

    1/2 ÷ 1/2 = 1/2 × 2 = 1.

  3. 3 piece-lengths

    3/4 ÷ 1/4 = 3/4 × 4 = 3.

  4. 16

    2 ÷ 1/8 = 2 × 8 = 16.

  5. 4:5

    Keep red first; divide 4:5 by 1.

  6. 3/4

    Total = 24; green fraction = 18/24 = 3/4.

  7. 25 oaks and 20 pines

    9 equal sections total; each section is 45 ÷ 9 = 5.

  8. 12; 12

    Multiply both parts by 2 and by 2.

  9. 10; 25

    Multiply both parts by 2 and by 5.

  10. 6 square meters; aligned pairs (0,0), (3,2), (9,6)

    9 ÷ 3 = 3 batches; 3 × 2 = 6.

  11. Mix B

    For 25 cups water, A uses 30 cups juice; B uses 34. B has more juice per equal water amount.

  12. (0,0), (5,4), (10,8), (30,24); 30 tickets earns $24

    Scale both quantities by each batch count; plot horizontal tickets and vertical dollars.

  13. 12 oaks and 6 pines

    9 equal sections total; each section is 18 ÷ 9 = 2.

  14. 9/2 feet

    3/2 × 3 = 9/2. Smaller units require more units for the same amount.

  15. 150 centimeters

    3/2 × 100 = 150. Smaller units require more units for the same amount.

  16. 1 hours

    60 ÷ 60 = 1; 1 hours = 60 minutes.

  17. 7:4; 7/4 times as many

    Keep red first; divide 14:8 by 2.

  18. 1/3; 1/2 or 1:2; the whole includes both colors

    Total = 36; green fraction = 12/36 = 1/3.

  19. 18 oaks and 6 pines; difference 12

    8 equal sections total; each section is 24 ÷ 8 = 3.

  20. 8; 24

    Multiply both parts by 2 and by 6.
