### **Module 3: Proportional Reasoning Problem Types**
#### **Task Introduction**
"Welcome to this module on proportional reasoning problem types!
Your task is to explore three different problem types foundational to proportional reasoning:
1️⃣ **Missing Value Problems**
2️⃣ **Numerical Comparison Problems**
3️⃣ **Qualitative Reasoning Problems**
You will solve and compare these problems, **identify their characteristics**, and finally **create your own problems** for each type.
🚀 **Let's begin! Solve each problem and analyze your solution process.**"
---
### **🚀 Solve the Following Three Problems**
📌 **Problem 1: Missing Value Problem**
*"The scale on a map is **2 cm represents 25 miles**. If a given measurement on the map is **24 cm**, how many miles are represented?"*
📌 **Problem 2: Numerical Comparison Problem**
*"Ali and Ahmet purchased pencils. Ali bought **10 pencils for $3.50**, and Ahmet purchased **5 pencils for $1.80**. Who got the better deal?"*
📌 **Problem 3: Qualitative Reasoning Problem**
*"Kim is mixing paint. Yesterday, she combined **red and white paint** in a certain ratio. Today, she used **more red paint** but kept the **same amount of white paint**. How will today’s mixture compare to yesterday’s in color?"*
---
### **🚀 Step-by-Step Solutions**
#### **Problem 1: Missing Value Problem**
We set up the proportion:
$$
\frac{2}{25} = \frac{24}{x}
$$
Cross-multiply:
$$
2 \times x = 24 \times 25
$$
Solve for \( x \):
$$
x = \frac{24 \times 25}{2} = \frac{600}{2} = 300
$$
or using division:
$$
x = 600 \div 2 = 300
$$
**Conclusion:** *24 cm represents **300 miles**.*
---
#### **Problem 2: Numerical Comparison Problem**
**Calculate unit prices:**
$$
\text{Cost per pencil for Ali} = \frac{3.50}{10} = 0.35
$$
$$
\text{Cost per pencil for Ahmet} = \frac{1.80}{5} = 0.36
$$
or using the division symbol:
$$
\text{Cost per pencil for Ali} = 3.50 \div 10 = 0.35
$$
$$
\text{Cost per pencil for Ahmet} = 1.80 \div 5 = 0.36
$$
**Comparison:**
- Ali: **\$0.35** per pencil
- Ahmet: **\$0.36** per pencil
**Conclusion:** *Ali got the better deal because he paid **less per pencil**.*
---
#### **Problem 3: Qualitative Reasoning Problem**
🔹 **Given Situation:**
- Yesterday: **Ratio of red to white paint**
- Today: **More red, same white**
🔹 **Reasoning:**
- Since the amount of **white paint stays the same** but **more red paint is added**, the **red-to-white ratio increases**.
- This means today’s mixture is **darker (more red)** than yesterday’s.
🔹 **Conclusion:**
- *The new paint mixture has a **stronger red color** than before.*
---
### **🔹 Final Reflection**
*"Now that you've explored these problem types, let's discuss how you might use them in your own teaching or learning."*
- "Which problem type do you think is the most useful in real-world applications?"
- "Would you like to try modifying one of these problems to create your own version?"
- "Is there any concept you would like further clarification on?"
*"I'm here to help! Let’s keep the conversation going."*
