Watch the video and answer these questions.

1. Is it possible to fix the mix up?

2. How many different ways can you think of to fix the mix up?

Show students how to find equivalent ratios to 5 red / 1 white. We can't do 5 red to 1 white because we already have 5 white in the pan. Is there another equivalent ratio we CAN do?
