Mrs. Carroll
has to buy enough pizza for 8 people. She knows that there are
usually 8 pieces in a large pizza. To figure out how many large
pizzas she should buy, she multiplies 10 times 2 to help her
decide. Is this reasonable?
Courtney is saving for a car that cost $4,750.00. She

Nicole has a new shelf in her kitchen
that can hold up to 10 pounds. She knows that a bag of flour
weighs about 5 pounds. If we held a box of rice, it
would not weigh as much, so 2 lbs makes sense. Saying
the shelf could hold 1 bag of flour and 3 bags of rice is reasonable.
