Greatest Common Factor (GCF) – the greatest number that is a factor of two or more numbers

In other words, ask “what is the highest value these numbers have in common?”

Example 1

1. There are one-slice servings of three types of cake on a table. Each row has an equal number of servings and only one type of cake. What is the

number of servings in each row?

To solve this problem, use common

factors.

Factors of 10: 1,2,5,10

Factors of 15: 1, 3, 5, 15

Factors of 20: 1, 2, 4, 5, 10, 20

The GCF of 10, 15, and 20 is 5. So, the greatest number of pieces of cake that can be placed in each row is 5.

ratio - a comparison of two quantities (amounts) by division.

Example: A ratio of 2 red paper clips to 6 blue paper

clips can be written in 3 ways.

2 to 6 2:6 26

Just like fractions, ratios are often expressed in the simplest form.

Example 1

Write the ratio in simplest form that compares the number of red paper clips to the number of blue paper clips. Then explain its meaning. Write the ratio as a fraction. Then simplify.

26

= 13

The ratio is 1/3, or 1 to 3, or 1:3. “Explain its meaning” = For every 1 red paper clip there are 3 blue paper clips.

Rates

Vocabulary

rate - ratio comparing two quantities (amounts) of different kinds of units.

unit rate – a rate with a denominator of 1

Example: Desiree typed a text message with 15 characters in 5 seconds. Ratio Rate Unit Rate

15:5 15 characters

5 seconds

3 characters1 second

Vocabulary Continued

unit price - the cost per unit (1 item).

Example:

Rate Unit price

$36

4 𝑡𝑖𝑐𝑘𝑒𝑡𝑠

$9

1 𝑡𝑖𝑐𝑘𝑒𝑡

What is the similar between a “unit rate” and a “unit price”?

Things to consider:

1. Rate is a fraction.

2. 𝐹𝑖𝑟𝑠𝑡 𝑛𝑢𝑚𝑏𝑒𝑟 (𝑤𝑖𝑡ℎ 𝑙𝑎𝑏𝑒𝑙)

𝑆𝑒𝑐𝑜𝑛𝑑 𝑛𝑢𝑚𝑏𝑒𝑟 (𝑤𝑖𝑡ℎ 𝑙𝑎𝑏𝑒𝑙)

EXCEPTIONS:

**Time ALWAYS goes on the bottom**

AND

**Money AWAYS goes on the top**

Example 1

Samantha picked 45 oranges in 5 minutes. Write this rate as a unit rate.

Write the rate as a fraction. 45 𝑜𝑟𝑎𝑛𝑔𝑒𝑠

5 𝑚𝑖𝑛𝑢𝑡𝑒𝑠

Divide the numerator and denominator by the denominator.

45 𝑜𝑟𝑎𝑛𝑔𝑒𝑠 ÷ 5 = 9 𝑜𝑟𝑎𝑛𝑔𝑒𝑠

5 𝑚𝑖𝑛𝑢𝑡𝑒𝑠 ÷ 5 = 1 𝑚𝑖𝑛𝑢𝑡𝑒

So, the unit rate is 9 𝑜𝑟𝑎𝑛𝑔𝑒𝑠

1 𝑚𝑖𝑛𝑢𝑡𝑒 or 9 oranges per minute.

Example 2

The Australian dragonfly can travel 18 miles in 30 minutes. How far can the dragonfly travel in 1 minute?

Write the rate as a fraction. 18 𝑚𝑖𝑙𝑒𝑠

30 𝑚𝑖𝑛𝑢𝑡𝑒𝑠

Since you cannot divide the numerator by the denominator, simplify the fraction.

Example 2 Continued

Simplify the fraction. 18 𝑚𝑖𝑙𝑒𝑠 ÷ 6 = 3 𝑚𝑖𝑙𝑒𝑠

30 𝑚𝑖𝑛𝑢𝑡𝑒𝑠 ÷ 6 = 5 𝑚𝑖𝑛𝑢𝑡𝑒𝑠

It can be written as 3 𝑚𝑖𝑙𝑒𝑠

5 𝑚𝑖𝑛𝑢𝑡𝑒𝑠 or as a unit rate of

An adult’s heart beats about 2,100 times every 30 minutes. A baby’s heart beats about 2,600 times every 20 minutes. How many more beats does a baby’s heart beat in 60 minutes than an adult’s heart?

Step 1: Find the unit rates.

Adult: 2,100 𝑏𝑒𝑎𝑡𝑠

1 𝑚𝑖𝑛𝑢𝑡𝑒

Baby: 2,600 𝑏𝑒𝑎𝑡𝑠

Example 3 Continued

Step 2: Using the unit rates for each, determine the number of beats in 60 minutes.

Adult: 70 X 60 = 4,200 beats

Baby: 130 X 60 = 7,800 beats

Step 3: Find the difference.

7,800 – 4,200 = 3,600

Answer: 3,600 more times

b. 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.

Example 3

Cans of corn are on sale at 10 for $4. Find the cost of 15 cans.

There is no whole number by which you can multiply 10 to get 15. So, scale back to 5 and then scale forward to 15.

First divide by 2, then multiply by 3.

In other words, scale back, then scale forward.

So, 15 cans of corn would cost $6.

Example 4

Joe mows lawns during the summer vacation to earn money. He took 14 hours last week to mow 8 lawns. At this rate, how many lawns could he mow in 49 hours?

Is there a whole number by which you can multiply 14 to get to 49?

NO

So, scale back to 7,

then scale forward to 49.
