MFM1P Unit 1 Activity 6

However,  I do have a post for the MFM1P Unit 1 Activity 6.  It's in regards to the Proportional Puzzle Assignment.  HINT:  A ratio is obtained by dividing the large number by the small.  So, under the GOAL heading they give you the example of having to convert a 4cm side into a 6cm side.  By dividing the large number by the small this gives you the ratio.

What is this good for?  Well, to calculate the measurements for the New, bigger puzzle. 

Step 1:  find the ratio.
Step 2: label the sections in the cut out:  A, B, C, D and E
Step 3: Measure the sides of  A and enter both sides into two cells in the column under ORIGINAL LENGTH (in cm) This will take up 2 cells.
Step 4: put the RATIO in the Column labeled PROCESS (in cm) This will be the same all the way down.
Step 5: Multiply to get your result in the column labeled NEW LENGTH (in cm)
Step 6:  use these new measurements to cut out a new, bigger, puzzle piece.
Step 7: Do the same for B, C, D and E.

Who is Correct?

First things, first:  If you were to make one square you would need four toothpics, 2 squares - 7 toothpicks, just count the sides.

Second thing, to find out which solution is correct, you have to run the number of toothpics for square 1 through the 4 formulas.  Then squares 2, then squares 3.  By doing this, you will find out which formula will give you the correct number of toothpics for each square grouping.

The Cube Sticker Problem

Look at the chart.  Pick a number.  Let's say you pick 4.  That becomes your n.  Then calculate boh Sid's and Sara's formula to find out if they equal the correct number of stickers.  In this case the correct number is 18.
