I totally meant to share these problems a few weeks ago, but I wanted to try it out with my classes first. However, I got so distracted with doing my Capture & Recapture Lab that we never got to the worksheet. Yes, I did a Capture & Recapture lab for my Beginning Algebra Classes to help demonstrate how proportions might be used as part of a method of estimation. Several students told me that without the lab, they wouldn’t have really understood exactly why we even needed proportions. That made me happy. So, here we are after the semester has already ended and I never used these problems. But I thought that I would share them anyway.
