  1. Read the proportion problem below and analyze the possible solutions. Determine which one(s) would work and why. • To make lemonade you need 8 lemons and 6 cups of water. How many lemons do you need if you have 24 cups of water? • 8 Lemons = a LemonsB) 8 Lemons = b Lemons • 6 C water 24 C water24 C water 6 C water • C) 6 C water = c LemonsD) 8 Lemons = 6 C water • 8 Lemons 24 C waterd Lemons 24 C water

  2. Set up word ratios (apply units) and solve proportions • A line for a ride at the fair is moving about 4 feet every 15 minutes. At this rate, how long will it take a person at the back of a 50 foot line to reach the front? • At Discount Copy, 12 copies cost $0.66. Melissa needs 56 copies. How much should they cost?

  3. Challenge!! • If three bakers can prepare 15 cakes in 60 minutes, how long will it take six bakers working at the same rate to prepare 20 cakes? • *Bring me your answers Wednesday!
