Printable Reading Club Book Packs Worksheet gives learners a diagram, one worked example and five questions. The student sheet leaves space to show work. A second printable page gives the steps for each answer.
Start with the model
Keep the relationship fixed by multiplying or dividing both quantities by the same number.
One batch pairs 3 packs with 12 books. The diagram shows a base pair, a doubled pair and two missing entries.
Worked example
Double the base pair 3 to 12. The equivalent pair is 6 to 24.
Ask the learner to point to the information used in the example. When they move on to the exercises, have them record the quantity, unit or label that each step represents.
Practice questions
- How many books go with 9 packs?
- How many packs go with 48 books?
- How many books go with one pack?
- Is 9 to 37 equivalent to 3 to 12? Explain.
- Combine batches of 6 and 9 packs. How many books are needed?
Separate answer key
- 9 is 3 times 3, so use 3 × 12 = 36 books.
- 48 ÷ 12 = 4 batches, so 4 × 3 = 12 packs.
- 12 ÷ 3 = 4 books per pack.
- No. Multiplying 3 by 3 requires multiplying 12 by 3, which gives 36, not 37.
- Together there are 5 batches, so 24 + 36 = 60 books.
