IM 5.14: Using Operations on Decimals to Solve Problems

Let’s solve some problems using decimals.

• Activity 14.1: Close Estimates (5 minutes)
• Activity 14.3: Distance between Hurdles (rest of the time)

Lesson Summary

• In this lesson, we used decimal operations to solve several problems involving measurements in sports. We noticed that diagrams can help us represent and communicate our mathematical thinking. We also saw that precision in our measurements and calculations matter.
  • For which problems did you use a diagram? How did the diagram help you solve the problem?
  • For which problems was it appropriate to round and estimate?
  • For which problems was a precise answer necessary? For which ones was it not as critical to be precise?
  • Find an example of how you applied each of the decimal operations to solve the problems in this lesson.

Learning Target: Students will be able to use addition, subtraction, multiplication, and division on decimals to solve problems.
