Tim is a first grader and reads 28 words per minute. Assuming he maintains the same rate, using the double number line to find out how many words he can read in 5 minutes.

Words 0 28 --- --- ---- ----
Minutes 0 1 5

This is basically completing I assume a ratio table. So my answers are as follows:

0/0
28/1
56/2
84/3
112/5
140/5

Can you please double check my work and let me know if I did this correct or if I need to be doing something different.

Thank you

Right.
Thank you for checking on this Ms.Sue
Thank you!
You messed up cause 28 times 5 is 140 not 112. So it’s supposed to be 112/4 but you put 112/5 instead.
good job
Idk please help me! I’m a 6th Grader and I’ve never been so confused !!!
