Question

here are two strategies for determining the number of balloons needed to make the rubber duck float. discuss: how might ariel and emma use their strategies to finish their tables?

Explanation:

Step1: Find ratio for Anel

Since 2 - oz light - bulb needs 6 balloons, the ratio of weight to number of balloons is $\frac{6}{2}=3$ balloons per ounce.

Step2: Calculate for Anel's rubber - duck

For Anel's 10 - oz rubber - duck, the number of balloons is $10\times3 = 30$.

Step3: Calculate for Anel's toy - bear

For Anel's 6 - oz toy - bear, the number of balloons is $6\times3=18$.

Step4: Calculate for Anel's carrot

For Anel's 3 - oz carrot, the number of balloons is $3\times3 = 9$.

Step5: Find ratio for Emma

Since 2 - oz light - bulb needs 6 balloons, the ratio of weight to number of balloons is $\frac{6}{2}=3$ balloons per ounce.

Step6: Calculate for Emma's rubber - duck

For Emma's 10 - oz rubber - duck, the number of balloons is $10\times3=30$.

Step7: Calculate for Emma's toy - bear

For Emma's 6 - oz toy - bear, the number of balloons is $6\times3 = 18$.

Step8: Calculate for Emma's carrot

For Emma's 3 - oz carrot, the number of balloons is $3\times3=9$.

Answer:

Anel:

Object	Weight (oz)	Number of Balloons
Rubber duck	10	30
Toy bear	6	18
Carrot	3	9

Emma:

Object	Weight (oz)	Number of Balloons
Rubber duck	10	30
Toy bear	6	18
Carrot	3	9
