The recipe calls for 8 cups of rice for every 6 cups of veggies. Show those quantities on the double number line.

Answer 1

To represent the quantities of rice and veggies on a double number line, you can set it up as follows:

1. Start with a number line for the rice on the top and a number line for the veggies directly below it.

2. Mark the quantities based on the ratio of rice to veggies, which is 8 cups of rice for every 6 cups of veggies. This can be simplified to a ratio of 4:3.

Here are the steps to visualize it on a double number line:

Double Number Line

Rice:  |----|----|----|----|----|----|----|----|
        0    4   8  12   16  20  24   28 

Veggies:|----|----|----|----|----|----|----|----|
         0    3   6   9   12  15  18  21 

3. Continue the pattern based on the ratio:

   • For 0 cups of rice, you have 0 cups of veggies.
   • For 8 cups of rice, you have 6 cups of veggies.
   • For 16 cups of rice, you have 12 cups of veggies, and so on.

4. You can extend the number lines further as required for larger quantities.

This visual allows you to see the proportional relationship between the amounts of rice and veggies in the recipe.
