Tim is a first grader and reads 28 words per minute. Assuming he maintains the same rate, using the double number line to find out how many words he can read in 5 minutes.
Words 0 28 --- --- ---- ----
Minutes 0 1 5
This is basically completing I assume a ratio table. So my answers are as follows:
0/0
28/1
56/2
84/3
112/5
140/5
Can you please double check my work and let me know if I did this correct or if I need to be doing something different.
Thank you
Right.
Thank you for checking on this Ms.Sue
Thank you!
No; Tim can read 140 words in 5 minutes.
is the answer what matt did corect
it is wrong
Your work is almost correct! Just a small correction: the last entry in your ratio table should be "140/5" instead of "112/5" since Tim can read 28 words per minute, and 28 x 5 = 140.
Here's the corrected ratio table:
Words 0 28 --- --- ---- ----
Minutes 0 1 5
Ratio table:
0/0
28/1
56/2
84/3
140/5
Based on this ratio table, you correctly calculated that Tim can read 140 words in 5 minutes if he maintains the same rate of 28 words per minute. Good job!
