The document describes three frog jumping problems and their solutions. It states that Frog jumps 8 times and travels 96 steps, with each jump being the same distance. Toad takes the same time to travel 96 steps, but each of Toad's jumps is equal to 8 of Frog's jumps. It then presents two additional jumping problems for Sunny and Cal and asks the number of steps each jump equals.

Jumping Frogs Problem
- 2. Frog¡¯s Jump Problem ? Frog jumps 8 times. ? Each time he jumps, he travels the same distance. ? After 8 jumps, he travels 96 steps. ? How long are the jumps?
- 3. Toad¡¯s Jump Problem ? It takes Toad the same amount of time to get to 96, but he does it differently. ? Each of Toad¡¯s jumps are equal to 8 of Frog¡¯s jumps. ? How many jumps does Toad make?
- 4. Decontextualize it! ? Represent both problems on one diagram ? Explain how they are different and how they are alike.
- 5. Jumping Frogs and Algebra! ? For each problem that follows, find the number of steps that one jump equals.
- 6. Sunny ? When Sunny jumps 4 times and takes 11 steps forward, he lands in the same place as when he jumps 5 times and takes 4 steps forward. ? One jump equals how many steps?
- 7. Cal ? When Cal jumps 3 times and takes 6 steps forward, he lands in the same place as when he jumps 4 times and takes 2 steps backward. ? One jump equals how many steps?
- 8. Legs ? When Legs jumps 2 times and takes 13 steps forward, he lands in the same place as when he jumps 4 times and takes 5 steps backward. ? One jump equals how many steps?
