1 1 Sara offered to bring 200 cookies to a block party. She plans to take the very popular Nestle Toll House Chocolate Chip cookies. Sara has only 7 ½ cups of flour and no fresh eggs. She will be using powdered egg substitute for the eggs. Convert the cookie recipe to yield 200 cookies. Nestle Toll House Cookies—Yield 60 cookies 2 1/4 cups all-purpose flour 1 teaspoon baking soda 1 teaspoon salt 1 cup (2 sticks) butter, softened 3/4 cup granulated sugar 3/4 cup packed brown sugar 1 teaspoon vanilla extract 4 Tbsp egg powder 4 Tbsp warm water 2 cups (12-oz. pkg.) NESTLÉ® TOLL HOUSE® Semi-Sweet Chocolate Morsels 1 cup chopped nuts

2 2 To convert the recipe we must determine the scaling factor. Since the recipe is being scaled up (yield is greater than original recipe) this scaling factor should be a number greater than 1. The quantity of each ingredient in the recipe must be multiplied by the scaling factor. Scaling Factor: 200/60 = 10/3 Nestle Toll House Cookies (2 1/4 ∙ 10/3) OR 7 1/2 cups all-purpose flour (1 ∙ 10/3) OR 3 1/3 teaspoon baking soda (1 ∙ 10/3) OR 3 1/3 teaspoon salt (1 ∙ 10/3) OR 3 1/3 cup butter, softened (3/4 ∙ 10/3) OR 2 1/2 cup granulated sugar (3/4 ∙ 10/3) OR 2 1/2 cup packed brown sugar (1 ∙ 10/3) OR 3 1/3 teaspoon vanilla extract (4 ∙ 10/3) OR 13 1/3 Tbsp (3/4 cup and 1 1/3 Tbsp) egg powder (4 ∙ 10/3) OR 13 1/3 Tbsp (3/4 cup and 1 1/3 Tbsp) warm water (2 ∙ 10/3) OR 6 2/3 cups NESTLÉ® TOLL HOUSE® Semi-Sweet Chocolate MorselsNESTLÉ® TOLL HOUSE® Semi-Sweet Chocolate Morsels (1 ∙ 10/3) OR 3 1/3 cup chopped nuts

3 3 Peter's truck gets him 10 2/3 miles per gallon. Suppose Peter's tank is empty and he puts 5 1/2 gallons, how far can Peter go in the truck?

4 4 Since Peter put 5 1/2 gallons in his truck that gets 10 2/3 miles per gallon it is necessary to ________ (multiply) these values to find how far Peter can drive with that quantity of gas. (10 2/3 miles/gallon) (5 1/2 gallon) = (____ miles/gallon)∙(____ gallon) = (____)∙(____) miles = (____)/(____) miles = _____ miles Peter can travel _______ miles on ______ gallons of gas.

5 5 Solution: Since Peter put 5 1/2 gallons in his truck that gets 10 2/3 miles per gallon it is necessary to multiply these values to find how far Peter can drive with that quantity of gas. (10 2/3 miles/gallon) (5 1/2 gallon) = (32/3 miles/gallon) (11/2 gallon) = (16/3) (11/1) miles = (16∙11)/(3∙1) miles = 352/3 miles = 117 1/3 miles Peter can travel 117 1/3 miles on 10 2/3 gallons of gas.

Submit a representation (picture) of the fraction 7/10. 3. Submit an explanation and illustration of how to find the product 3/4 ∙ 7/10.

16 16 It is a standard practice to express fractions in their simplified form—meaning the same shaded area is represented using a fewest possible number of parts; thus, the simplified fraction is equivalent to the original fraction. The shaded region represents the fraction 20/32. Which is 20/32 in simplified form? Click on answer. Multiplication of Fractions—Task 2 Appropriate feedback to be inserted based on Learners response.

17 17 The fraction 20/32 is equivalent to 5/8. It is not very efficient to make sketches. It is more efficient to devise a system for simplifying fractions. Compare the fractions 20/32 and 5/8. Each part in the fraction 5/8 can be formed by combining 4 parts in the fraction 20/32. To simplify 20/32 divide both the numerator (shaded parts) and denominator (total parts) by 4. This creates the 1/8 th size parts in the simplified fraction. (20÷4)/ (32÷4) = 5/8 Multiplication of Fractions—Task 2

18 18 When simplifying the fraction 20/32 The 20 shaded parts in the fraction formed groups of 4. The 32 total parts in the fraction formed groups of 4. Examine the fraction represented below and determine the largest size groups that both the shaded parts can form and the total parts can form. Click on your answer. Multiplication of Fractions—Task 2 Appropriate feedback to be inserted based on Learners response. a) 2 b) 3 c) 4

19 19 The figure below represents the fraction 9/12. The parts in the shaded region can form groups of 3. The parts of entire figure can form groups of 3. The simplified form of this fraction is found by dividing both numerator and denominator by 3. A very important observation at this point is that 3 is the Greatest Common Factor of 9 and 12. The GCF(9,12) is the number used to divide both the numerator and denominator.
