Question

4. Rosanne and her family drove for 8 hours on their vacation trip. Every 1/2 hour, they played a different game. How many different games did they play? Use tiles to help you solve.

Answer 1

We have the next information

1 game --- 1/2 hour

x games -- 8 hour

x is the number of games in 8 hours

x can be calculated if we divided 8 between 1/2

`x=(8)/((1)/(2))=((8)/(1))/((1)/(2))=(8\cdot2)/(1\cdot1)=(16)/(1)=16`

they played 16 different games in 8 hours
