Solve each of the following problems: Jawbreakers =13 Jolly Ranchers =5 Suppose you had a new candy jar with the same ratio of Jolly Ranchers to Jawbreakers as shown above, but it contained 100 Jolly Ranchers.

Question

Solve each of the following problems:

Jawbreakers =13

Jolly Ranchers =5

Suppose you had a new candy jar with the same ratio of Jolly Ranchers to Jawbreakers as shown above, but it contained 100 Jolly Ranchers. How many Jawbreakers would you have? Explain how you know.

The first candy jar has 5 Jolly Ranchers/13 Jawbreakers.

The new candy jar has 100 Jolly Ranchers/? (X) Jawbreakers

If we use a cross-multiplying and solving for X (the number of Jawbreakers), we will give you the answer.

X=260

The problem is related to a multiplicative relationship because this calculation still involves multiplication, which is characteristic of a multiplicative relationship.

Suppose you had a candy jar with the same ratio of Jolly Ranchers to Jawbreakers as shown above, but it contained 720 candies. How many of each kind of candy would you have? Explain how you know.

The ratio of Jolly Ranchers to Jawbreakers is 5/13

If we use cross-multiplying and solving for X (the number of Jawbreakers), we will give you the answer again.

5/13=x new candy/720candy

X new candy=3600/5=277 Jolly Ranchers

I want to know if I am doing well or not. I need to justify which type of relationship is described in those problems or situations (additive relationship, multiplicative relationship, or constant relationship). How can I know? (show statements)
