  1. Name Learning Objective We will solve word problems. CFU What are we going to do? Activate Prior Knowledge An equation uses an equal sign to say two amounts are the same. Solve for the unknown value in the equation below. 1. 5  3 = 15 2. 6  4 = d Make Connection Students, you already know how to solve equations. Sometimes a math problem is written in words instead of numbers. Now, we will solve word problems.

  2. Concept Development • A multiplier is a number used to compare a greater quantityand lesser quantity using multiplication. • Word problems can sometimes compare two quantities using a multiplier. • When one of the factors is unknown, division can be used to solve the problem. Go to Skill Dev 1 Go to Skill Dev 2 Unknown Greater Quantity Word Problem Ronaldoread 5 pagesthis week. Shengread three times as many pages as Ronaldo. How many pages did Sheng read? Sheng read 15 pagesthis week. Unknown Lesser Quantity Word Problem Feliciaread twelve pagesthis week. Felicia read four times as many pages as Alyssa. How many pages did Alyssa read? Alyssa read 4 pages this week. CFU 1 Identify the multiplier in the word problem below. How do you know it is the multiplier? Identify the lesser quantity in the word problem below. How do you know it is the lesser quantity? Emilia has 4 apples. Charles has three times as many. How many apples does Charles have?
