Knowing if items are proportional is crucial in various real-world applications, such as cooking, construction, and finance. It enables students to identify relationships between quantities, solve complex problems, and make informed decisions. In this lesson, we will differentiate between proportional and non-proportional situations and apply that understanding using customary units like feet, pounds, and gallons. Students will learn through practical examples and exercises, preparing them for future assessments and everyday problem-solving.
