Chapter 2.2, Problem 43E

On National Public Radio, the “Weekend Edition“ program on Sunday, July 29, 2001, posed the following puzzle: Draw a three-by-three square (three boxes across by three boxes down). Put the fraction 3/8 in the first square in the first row. Put the fraction 1/4 in the last square in the second row. The object is to put a fraction in each of the remaining boxes, so the three numbers in each row, each column, and each of the long diagonals add up to 1. Solve this puzzle by letting seven variables represent the seven unknown fractions, writing eight equations for the eight sums, and solving by the Gauss-Jordan method.

Daniel collects baseball cards and keeps them in a special binder. Each page holds 9 baseball cards in a 3 x 3 array. The first page is full. The second page is full. If Daniel put all the cards onto just one page, what fraction of that page would be full? Use numbers, labeled sketches, or words to model and solve the problem.
if we place 1 penny on the first square of a chessboard, 3 pennies on the second, 9 pennies on the third and continue the pattern, how many pennies will be on the 120th square?
Troy is a proud drummer in the Minnie Mites Marching Band and has invited his fellow drummers over for a party.  When he called to order three pies from the local bakery, he was told that each pie would be cut into pieces that are each 1/8 of a pie.  Troy is wondering if he has ordered enough pie to share with all the drummers.
