5.OA.3

In this standard, students are expected to use two rules to generate two patterns before discussing the relationship between the two patterns.

For example,

Days Melissa's Total # of Fish Joe's Total # of Fish

0 0 0

1 2 4

2 4 8

3 6 12

4 8 16

5 10 20

Joe's total number of fish is 2 times as many as Melissa's total number. Melissa's total number is 1/2 times as many as Joe's total number.
