Select all the equations that represent the hanger. a. x+x+x=1+1+1+1+1+1
b. xxx=6
c. 3x=6
d. x+3=6
e. xxx=111111

Write an equation to represent each hanger.

1 x 3 + X x 2= B. 2.7 = w + 1.3 C. 5.1 = y x 3 D. ½ = ⅓ + z

Use the balanced hanger to answer the following problems.

Write an equation to represent the hanger.
14.62 = x + x
Explain how to reason with the hanger to find the value of x.
You have to divide 14.62 and then divide that once more and give both x’s that answer.

4. Andre says that x is 7 because he can move the two 1s with the to the other side.

Do you agree with Andre? Explain your reasoning. NO. He is adding the wrong way. He has to subtract 5 from 2 then you get 3 which is x.

5. Match each equation to one of the diagrams.
12 − m=4
12=4mD
m − 4=12
m4=12
