  1. Focus: Using the Ball Park Strategy to Solve Problems When you go to a baseball game, the park is set up something like this. Where is the game played? Where does the crowd sit? What do these lines mean?

  2. It’s a FAIR ball! X So, these lines are the FOUL LINES. What would happen if a player hit the ball, and it landed where you see a red “x”?

  3. It’s a FOUL ball! X What would happen if a player hit the ball, and it landed where you see a red “x”?

  7. Least possible number goes here. Greatest possible number goes here. = = Between x x Multiply these numbers Multiply these numbers Amount of time

  8. Possible numbers Anything in between these numbers is “fair.” Anything larger than this number is “foul.” Anything smaller than this number is “foul.” Between = = x x Amount of time

  9. Possible numbers Anything in between these numbers is “fair.” 30 15 Anything larger than this number is “foul.” Anything smaller than this number is “foul.” Between = = 5 10 • Michael went to baseball camp for 3 days. Each day he hit between 5 and 10 home runs. What is a possible number of home runs he could have hit? • a. 5 • b. 10 • c. 25 • d. 50 x x 3 Amount of time
