Ms fazing is the manager of a television station. Sue prepared a line plot to show the lengths of the commercials aired during a recent broadcast. She concluded that the longest commercial were 3 times as long as the shortest ones because 3 x 1/2=1 1/2. Did ms Fazio use the correct operation to support her conclusion? Explain

10.

Yes, because if we multiply the shortest commercial by 3, we obtain the length of the largest commercial:

3 x 1/2 = 1 1/2

12. It is logical, there's no way to improve his reasoning.
