Question 5:
If 25 DVD Rom cost $14.50, calculate the cost of 11 DVD Rom

I solved it using word ratios. 11 DVDs would cost $126.
DVDs 25 x.44 11
Cost $14.50 x.44 $126

Question 6:
If 5 tickets for a play cost $40, calculate the cost of:
6 tickets
14 tickets
20 tickets

I also solved this question using a word ratio. 6 tickets would cost $48, 15 would cost $112, and 20 would cost $160

5X8 = 40
6X8 = 48
14X8 = 112
20X8 = 160

We also learnt a bit about an assignment coming up that we will be doing on the internet later. Its a sheet of questions we'll have to answer later on.
