MEET KITTY

Kitty loves to sew!

OH NO! Kitty ran out of fabric!

Now Kitty has to take a trip to the fabric shop!

The fabric shop is 50 feet from her house.

To walk to the shop and come home it will take Kitty 20 minutes.

How fast is Kitty traveling?

Kitty’s House 50 feet Fabric Shop 10 minutes

50ft + 50ft= 100ft roundtrip

Kitty has to travel 100 feet all together.

We know it takes Kitty 20 minutes to walk to the fabric shop and back.

50ft there

50ft back

100 ft ÷ 20 min = 5 feet / minute

We can also say it would take kitty 10 minutes

each way.

Kitty is traveling at a rate of 5 feet per

minute.

Kitty’s House 50 feet Fabric Shop 10 minutes

50ft, 10 min

50ft, 10 min

When Kitty arrived at the fabric shop she asked Charisma, the salesunicorn, for 12

inches of fabric.

Oh No!The fabric only comes in feet!

How many feet of fabric does Kitty need if she wants 12

inches?

There are 12 inches in a footTherefore Kitty needs 1 foot of fabric!

Half of the way home Kitty gets a phone call.

Oh No! Kitty forgot her friend, Pepper, was coming over!

From the half way point Kitty runs home twice as fast!

How long did it take kitty to get from the fabric shop to

her house?

It had already taken kitty 5 minutes to get to the half way point.

|

2 1/2 min 5 min

|

The rest of the trip was only 25 feet.

Because Kitty was going twice as fast as 5 minutes per 25 feet, it took Kitty only 2 and a half minutes

to get the rest of the way home.

It took Kitty 5 minutes + 2 and a half minutes to get home.

She got home in 7 and a half minutes

When Kitty gets home Pepper is waiting for her

with….

a surprise!!

FABRIC!

THE END!
