  • Leaky Tanks
    ::轻型坦克

    Katie and Sunnie both have  20-gallon fish tanks  that are leaking water!  After 15 minutes, Katie's tank has leaked 4 3  gallon. After 20 minutes, Sunnie's tank has leaked 3 4  gallon. Which tank is leaking faster?
    ::凯蒂和逊尼派都有20加仑的鱼缸在漏水!15分钟后,凯蒂的坦克漏水43加仑。20分钟后,逊尼派的坦克漏水34加仑。哪个坦克漏水更快?

    Use the interactive to determine which tank is leaking faster.
    ::使用互动来确定哪个坦克漏水速度更快。

    Discussion Question
    ::讨论问题

    In this example, the units were the same. You were comparing gallons of water leaked per hour of two different tanks . But how could you compare if the  units  are different? 
    ::在这个例子中,单位是相同的。你比较了两个不同的罐子每小时漏水的加仑。但如果单位不同,你又如何比较呢?

     


    Which Leaks Faster?
    ::哪个漏水更快?

    Suppose  a blue container is leaking at a rate of 1 4  cup/min and a red container is leaking at 1 2  gal/hour. Which  container is leaking faster?
    ::假设蓝色容器漏水速度为14个杯子/分钟,红色容器漏水速度为12小时/小时。哪个容器漏水速度更快?

    Use the interactive below to compare the  leak rates  given different units.

       Summary
    ::摘要

    • In order to compare measures, they must be in the same units.
      ::为了比较措施,它们必须在同一单位。
    • Comparing rates is easiest when they are written as unit rates.
      ::比较率在以单位费率写成时最容易比较。
    • Multiplying or dividing two rates by the same number does not change whether one rate is greater or less than the other.
      ::乘以或除以相同数目的两种汇率,不改变一种汇率大于或低于另一种汇率。
