Fifth Six Weeks Answer Keys (pp. 1 of 3) Week 1 Answer Key: Processes may vary. Day 1 a) Width: 4 m; Length 4 + 4 + 2 = 10 m; Perimeter of the bottom of box: 10 + 10 + 4 + 4 = 28 meters or 20 + 8 = 28 meters b) Area of the bottom of box: 10 x 4 = 40 square meters c) Height: 4 2 = 2 m; Volume of box: 10 x 4 = 40, 40 x 2 = 80 cubic meters or 10 x 4 x 2 = 80 cubic meters Day 2 a) 32 x 4 = 128 squares, not correct because it is multiplying the number of squares times the length of one quilt b) 15 + 32 + 4 = 51 squares, not correct because it is adding squares plus quilts plus length c) 32 4 = 8 squares, not correct because it dividing the squares on one quilt by the length d) 15 x 32 = 480 squares, correct because it is multiplying the number of squares of one quilt times the number of quilts needed Day 4 Depends on the cards drawn. a) I started with Cynthia because I knew she had 74. Then I had to find Carol s amount because she had 3 times more marbles than Cynthia, so I multiplied 74 by 3. After finding Carol s number of marbles, I could find Christy s amount by dividing it by 2. b) Cynthia 74 marbles, Carol 74 x 3 = 222 marbles, Christy 222 2 = 111 marbles c) 74 + 222 + 111 = 407 marbles Week 2 Answer Key: Processes may vary. Day 1 a) Approximately 180 10 = 18 sweaters, or 200 10 = 20 sweaters; etc. b) 184 8 = 23 sweaters on each shelf c) 23 x 6 = 138 sweaters in the second shipment d) 184 + 138 = 322 total sweaters, 97 x 2 = 194 sold or free, 322 194 = 128 sweaters left Day 2 a) Two eight foot boards will replace the 10 shelves; one 8 ft board = 96 in. (8 x 12 = 96 in.); 96 18 = 5 shelves with 6 inches left per board. I changed the 8 feet to inches and then divided by 18 to see how many shelves could be cut from one board, then I knew 5 + 5 = 10 shelves; etc. b) Two ten foot boards will replace the 10 shelves; one 10 ft board = 120 in. (10 x 12 = 120 in.), 120 18 = 6 shelves with 12 inches left over per board. I changed the 10 feet to inches and then divided by 18 to see how many shelves could be cut from one board, then I knew 6 + 6 = 12 shelves which would be enough to replace the 10 shelves; etc. c) Fred should be 2 eight foot boards, because he will get 10 shelves and not much left over wood and they probably cost less; etc. a) 1 x 4 = 4 cups b) 4 cups = 1 quart c) 4 quarts = 1 gallon; 4 x 4 = 16 cups which will make 16 cakes Day 4 a) 7 necklaces are yellow 5 red + 2 green = 7 necklaces and the rest were yellow; 14 7 = 7 b) 14 7 are yellow 2011, TESCCC 12/12/11 page 6 of 8

Day 1 a) Two DVD players; $693 + $174 = $867 for the computer and monitor and $989 $867 = $122. The cost of two DVD players is $49 x 2 = $98. b) $867 + $98 = $965, $989 $965 = $24 left; $122 $98 = $24 left; etc. c) He could buy a DVD player, PDA, TV, and 2 Monitors for $967 and have $22 left; or he could buy a PDA, TV, Monitor, and 5 DVD players for $989 with no money left over. Day 2 a) 2 rows of 63 chairs, 3 rows of 42 chairs, 6 rows of 21 chairs, 9 rows of 14 chairs, 63 rows of 2 chairs; 42 rows of 3 chairs, 21 rows of 6 chairs, and 14 rows of 9 chairs. 2011, TESCCC 12/12/11 page 7 of 8
Fifth Six Weeks Answer Keys (pp. 3 of 3) Week 4 Answer Key (continued): Processes may vary. a) No, because the story only mentions height not a certain weight. b) No, because knowing the width is not needed to determine the car seat. c) Yes, because the seat can only be used with children 41 or less inches. d) No, the car seat is for her son. Day 4 a) Miles: $56.50 because he had twice as much money as John; $28.25 + $28. 25 = $56.50 b) Tamara: $113 because Miles had half as much money as Tamara; $56.50 + $56.50 = $113 c) $28.25 + $56.50 + $113 = $197.75 altogether and Matt has $200 so Matt has $2.25 more money. Week 5 Answer Key: Processes may vary. Day 1 a) Not correct, I do not know how many gerbils Celia has in all. b) Not correct, the store could have gerbils before Celia sold her gerbils. c) Correct, if we know the cost of one gerbil, we can multiply the amount by 14. d) Not correct, the size of the gerbil is not considered in the cost. Day 2 a) 12 x 7 = 84 laps in 7 days b) 84 x 3 = 252 laps in 3 weeks c) Six weeks, because if I add the laps for 3 weeks two times the answer is 504 laps (252 + 252 = 504); if I multiply 84 x 5 = 420 laps which is not enough, so if I add 84 more for 1 more week, I get 504 laps which would enough; etc. a) The numbers are decreasing or getting smaller each time; etc. b) The pattern is -11, -10, -9, -8, -7, -6, -5, -4, -3, -2 so the difference is one less each time, I know because 593-587 = 6, 587 582 = 5, 587 582 = 4; etc. c) Day 4 638 627 617 608 600 593 587 582 578 575 573-11 -10-9 -8-7 -6-5 -4-3 -2 a) Not correct, because it adds the price of the car with the money in her account, etc. b) Correct, because it subtracts the money she has from the price of the car; the answer will give the amount needed to save, etc. c) Not correct, because it is dividing the price of the car by the months and she has $1,284; etc. d) Not correct, because multiplying the amount she has already saved by eight tell her if she saved that amount of 8 months not how much more money she needs to purchase the car, etc. 2011, TESCCC 12/12/11 page 8 of 8
