Real life math with unit rates. On the first page, students use real prices on different sized products to determine which is the better buy using unit rates (3 problems). On the second page, they complete 2 ratio tables. One comparing cost of admission into a zoo, and the other into a museum. They then graph to visually compare what they can conclude about the costs.
Here is a warm-up / handout where students must use unit rates in order to determine which size bag of M & M's is the better buy. Students must explain show how they determined their answer by calculating price per ounce.
