Exit Ticket New Tool: Tape Diagram Let’s solve this problem using a tape diagram. The question is: How many cups of yellow paint does Zack need to make his shade of orange paint? We know: Zack’s orange paint is made by mixing 3 cups of red for every 5 cups of yellow. And, we know: he bought 24 cups of red paint. Since every box must have the same quantity… Now we can figure out how many cups each box represents. If 3 boxes are 24 then… This is a 3:5 ratio of red to yellow. 24 Let’s label the diagram. 8 8 8 red Let’s draw the tapes. 8 8 8 8 8 yellow ? 40 cups of yellow paint That means the answer is: Agenda
