The document provides guidance on solving word problems involving volume calculations. It gives examples of finding the volume of a cube, rectangular prism, and box. Students are instructed to create their own word problems based on given situations, such as calculating the volume of a water tank. The document emphasizes that problem solving involves understanding the concepts, identifying what is given and asked, selecting the appropriate formula, justifying the solution, and relating problems to real-life scenarios.
15. Situation 2:
Litos business is to deliver water to
schools.
Her water tank measures 4 meters
long, 2 meters wide, and 2 meters
high.
Every morning, he delivers a tank full
of water to each of the schools
16. After the activities are done,
let the groups post their
created problems from the
given situations and let them
follow the task below.
1. Read and solving the
problem.
2.Illustrate and solve the
problem with its solution.
20. To sum it up
Steps in creating problems.
1. Familiarize yourself in the concepts. Think of an
explanation to everyday life real situations.
2. Think of the type of problem you want to create and the
formula to be used. Relate the problem to real life situations.
3. Study the solution in solving the problems.
4. Make your own styles/strategies to justify the solutions.
22. Assessment
Make problems involving the volume of a rectangular
prism with corresponding answers based on the given
situations.
1. A small gift box measures 8 cm long, 7 cm wide
and 2 cm high.
2. A rectangular water tank is 5 meter high, 2 m
wide and 3 m long.
3. The volume of a rectangular prism is 75 cm^3,
its height is 6 cm, and its length is 4 cm.
