  8. Conversion Factor Method a problem-solving method

  9. Conversion Factor Method a problem-solving method anything can be multiplied by 1 without changing its value

  10. Conversion Factor Method IMPORTANT: This is the basis of the Conversion Factor Method! a problem-solving method anything can be multiplied by 1 without changing its value

  11. Conversion Factor Method a “conversion factor” is a fraction whose numerator and denominator are equivalent, making it equal to 1

  12. Conversion Factor Method a “conversion factor” is a fraction whose numerator and denominator are equivalent, making it equal to 1 Example: 12

  13. Conversion Factor Method a “conversion factor” is a fraction whose numerator and denominator are equivalent, making it equal to 1 Example: 12 1dozen

  14. Conversion Factor Method a “conversion factor” is a fraction whose numerator and denominator are equivalent, making it equal to 1 Example: 12 = 1dozen

  15. Conversion Factor Method a “conversion factor” is a fraction whose numerator and denominator are equivalent, making it equal to 1 Example: 12 = 1 1dozen

  16. Conversion Factor Method a “conversion factor” is a fraction whose numerator and denominator are equivalent, making it equal to 1 Example: 12 = 1 = 1dozen

  17. Conversion Factor Method a “conversion factor” is a fraction whose numerator and denominator are equivalent, making it equal to 1 Example: 12 = 1 = 1 dozen 1dozen

  18. Conversion Factor Method a “conversion factor” is a fraction whose numerator and denominator are equivalent, making it equal to 1 Example: 12 = 1 = 1 dozen 1dozen 12

  19. Conversion Factor Method use “conversion factors” to convert from one unit to another

  20. Conversion Factor Method use “conversion factors” to convert from one unit to another make conversion factors from any two terms that describe equivalent “amounts”

  21. Conversion Factor Method IMPORTANT: This is the basis of the Conversion Factor Method! use “conversion factors” to convert from one unit to another make conversion factors from any two terms that describe equivalent “amounts”

  22. Conversion Factor Method Example: There are 60 seconds in 1 minute. you can make two “conversion factors” from this information: ? or ? ? ?

  23. Conversion Factor Method Example: There are 60 seconds in 1 minute. you can make two “conversionfactors” from this information: 1 min or ? ? ?

  24. Conversion Factor Method Example: There are 60 seconds in 1 minute. you can make two “conversionfactors” from this information: 1 min or ? 60 sec ?

  25. Conversion Factor Method Example: There are 60 seconds in 1 minute. you can make two “conversion factors” from this information: 1 min or 60 sec 60 sec ?

  26. Conversion Factor Method Example: There are 60 seconds in 1 minute. you can make two “conversion factors” from this information: 1 min or 60 sec 60 sec 1 min

  27. Conversion Factor Method Example: 1 inch = 2.54 cm

  28. Conversion Factor Method Example: 1 inch = 2.54 cm you can make two “conversion factors” from this information: ? or ? ? ?

  29. Conversion Factor Method Example: 1 inch = 2.54 cm you can make two “conversion factors” from this information: 1 inch or ? ? ?

  30. Conversion Factor Method Example: 1 inch = 2.54 cm you can make two “conversion factors” from this information: 1 inch or ? 2.54 cm ?

  31. Conversion Factor Method Example: 1 inch = 2.54 cm you can make two “conversion factors” from this information: 1 inch or 2.54 cm 2.54 cm ?

  32. Conversion Factor Method Example: 1 inch = 2.54 cm you can make two “conversion factors” from this information: 1 inch or 2.54 cm 2.54 cm 1 inch

  33. Conversion Factor Method Sample Problem: How many cm in 6 inches? 6 in. x =

  34. Conversion Factor Method Sample Problem: How many cm in 6 inches? 6 in x 2.54 cm = ?

  35. Conversion Factor Method Sample Problem: How many cm in 6 inches? 6 in x 2.54 cm = 1 in

  36. Conversion Factor Method Sample Problem: How many cm in 6 inches? 6 in x 2.54 cm = 1 in

  37. Conversion Factor Method Sample Problem: How many cm in 6 inches? 6 in x 2.54 cm = 1 in

  38. Conversion Factor Method Sample Problem: How many cm in 6 inches? 6 in x 2.54 cm = 15.24 1 in

  39. Conversion Factor Method Sample Problem: How many cm in 6 inches? 6 in x 2.54 cm = 15.24 cm 1 in

  40. Conversion Factor Method Sample Problem: Express 4.3 cm in inches. 4.3 cm x =

  41. Conversion Factor Method Sample Problem: Express 4.3 cm in inches. 4.3 cm x 1 in =

  42. Conversion Factor Method Sample Problem: Express 4.3 cm in inches. 4.3 cm x 1 in = ?

  43. Conversion Factor Method Sample Problem: Express 4.3 cm in inches. 4.3 cm x 1 in = 2.54 cm

  44. Conversion Factor Method Sample Problem: Express 4.3 cm in inches. 4.3 cm x 1 in = 2.54 cm

  45. Conversion Factor Method Sample Problem: Express 4.3 cm in inches. 4.3 cm x 1 in = 2.54 cm

  46. Conversion Factor Method Sample Problem: Express 4.3 cm in inches. 4.3 cm x 1 in = 1.69 2.54 cm

  47. Conversion Factor Method Sample Problem: Express 4.3 cm in inches. 4.3 cm x 1 in = 1.69 in 2.54 cm

  48. Conversion Factor Method You can also use two or more conversion factors together:

  49. Conversion Factor Method You can also use two or more conversion factors together: Example: How many seconds are in 2.0 years?

  50. Conversion Factor Method You can also use two or more conversion factors together: Example: How many seconds are in 2.0 years? First, think about what unit factors you can use.
