Imagine a Mysterious Monster named Multiplico. Multiplico loves to compare things in his giant castle filled with treasure. Every day, he looks for items to compare and figures out how many times greater one item is compared to another.
Once upon a time, in a land far away, there was a giant castle where Multiplico lived. The castle was filled with dazzling treasures:
Multiplico had a problem. He loved to know how many times more golden apples he had than silver apples.
Take a moment to think about it.
Now, turn to your partner and discuss your ideas. How would you explain this to someone who doesn’t know what multiples are?
Let’s gather back as a class. Who would like to share their thoughts?
Now that we have stirred our imaginations with the tale of Multiplico and his apples, let’s jump into the lesson on multiplicative comparisons! We will explore how to find out how many times larger one quantity is compared to another through activities and fun exercises.
