Bar models are used to illustrate
products and quotients
The equation modeled by the bar is
5x = 10
How to describe the bar
The bar is not given.
So, I will use the attached figure to
solve the question
From the attached figure, we have
the following highlights:
• The length of the bar is 10 units
• Each bar is x unit long
• There are 5 rectangles/squares
in the model
So, the equation of the bar is:
5* x= 10
Multiply 5 and x
5x= 10
Hence, the equation modeled by
the bar is 5x= 10
