In the mall parking lot, 60% of the cars are blue. If there are 300 cars in the parking lot, how many are blue?
In this lesson you will learn to calculate the part when you know the percent and the total by using a double number line.
Let’s Review 60% = 60 percent = 60 for every 100 A percent is a part-to-total ratio where the second number is always 100.
Let’s Review 5 ways to solve a ratio problem 1) Table with addition 2) Table with multiplication 3) Double number lines 4) Tape diagrams 5) Graphing
Thinking that a ratio describes just one situation Example: 1 pink sweater for every 5 sweaters 1 out of 5 is pink. 2 out of 10 are pink. 3 out of 15 are pink.
In the mall parking lot, 60% of the cars are blue. If there are 300 cars in the parking lot, how many are blue? KNOW Percent: 60 for every 100 cars are blue. Total: 300 cars CALCULATE Part: ??? blue cars
KNOW Percent: 60 for every 100 cars are blue. Total: 300 cars CALCULATE Part: 180 blue cars 0 60 120 180 0 100 200 300 blue cars total cars
0 60 120 300 0 100 200 x3 180 blue cars total cars x3
