Use a TAPE DIAGRAM to solve the problems below. Show
your work!
1. Travis drove 129 miles in 3 hours. How many miles did
he drive in 1 hour?
2. Six oranges cost $5.34. How much does 1 orange cost?
3. A bottle of body wash costs $2.88 and contains 12
ounces. How much does it cost per ounce?
4. A package of 5 crackers has 205 calories. How many
calories are in 1 cracker?
Double Number Lines
Tables
Double Number Line
A double number line allows you to show two quantities
at one time
A double number line works well when you are modeling
a rate
Remember our example from yesterday with Sam?
That was a double number line!
Miles _0___ 5 ___10_____20____40___
Hours _0__1/4__1/2____1_____2____
Double Number Line Example 1
Ms. Lipman’s car gets 30 miles per gallon. Use a double number
line to show this data and determine how many miles can be
driven on three gallons.
1.
Draw two lines – label the top miles and the bottom gallons
2.
Divide the lines into 3 parts
3.
Each part represents 30 miles on the top line and 1 gallon on
the bottom
4.
Label your lines with the correct values
5.
What is the answer? Use your double number line to find:
How many miles can she drive on 2 gallons? __________
How many miles can she drive on 4 gallons? __________
Double Number Line Example 2
Ki-mon can run 1 lap in 6 minutes. How many laps can he
run in 18 minutes? Use a double number line to find
your answer.

Laps
______6_______12______18_____
______1_______2_______3______
How many laps can he run in 9 minutes?
A table of ratios allows you to organize information
efficiently!
Let’s look at our example of Sam’s bike riding:
Sam bikes 20 miles in 1 hour. Sam’s rate is the same no
matter how long or short his bike ride is.

Turn to a partner and share:
What do you think the advantages are to using a table to
represent a ratio?
What is your preferred method of representing a ratio? Why?
(tape diagram, concrete model, double number line, table)
Tables – Example 1
To make yellow icing, you mix 6 drops of yellow food
coloring with 1 cup of white icing. How much yellow
food coloring should you mix with 5 cups of white icing
to get the same shade?
Use a table to find the answer.

Tables – Example 2
In a recent year, Joey Chestnut won a hotdog eating
contest by eating nearly 66 hot dogs in 12 minutes. If
he ate at a constant rate, determine about how many
hot dogs he ate every 2 minutes.
Use a table to find the answer.

Real World Application!
What are some of the places you go with friends?
What are some different modes of transportation you
have used?
Has anyone ever been in a cab?
Has anyone ridden on the lightrail in Charlotte?

The Movie that Wasn’t
You have 30 seconds to find your 7 o’clock
partner and take a seat
Each pair will get a sheet with a scenario
about going to the movies
Do your work on a separate sheet of paper
The first pair to thoroughly complete the
activity will receive a ticket each!
Your activity must include:
Work shown for all three parts
Correct answers with written explanations
Independent Practice
You have 10 minutes to complete the
Independent Practice worksheet.
Raise your hand if you have questions or
need help.
Katniss from the Hunger Games can shoot 20 apples
through the core in 30 seconds flat. (She’s super
talented, right?). Use a double number line to find out
how many apples can she shoot in 4 minutes.
To make cranberry jam, you need 12 cups of sugar for
every 16 cups of cranberries. Find the amount of sugar
needed for 4 cups of cranberries. Draw a table.
