Let's do a fun one!!! Here we need the conversion factor for:
1. Students per class
2. Slices per student
3. Slices in each pizza
4. Price per pizza
8
Here are the conversion factors!
Notice that every segment is equal. 25 Students = 1 class. 2 slices = 1 student. 1 pizza = 5 slices. $10.00 = 1 pizza.
9
Cross out the units that match but leave the numerical values.
Students
Slices
Pizza

Multiply and divide the numerical values left.
Multiply 25 x 2 x 1 x 10 = 500
Multiply 1 x 1 x 5 x 1 = 5
Then divide 100

Set up the problem with the conversion factors:
11 lbs = 1 cat. 1 kg = 2.2 lbs. 15 mg = 1 kg. 5 mL = 125 mg.
14
Cross off the units that cancel out.
lbs
kg
mg
