Understanding Block Conversion

The video tutorial explains how to convert a starting block of 2 units into two goal blocks of 5/8 and 1 and 3/4 units using available tools. The process involves understanding the units, converting the starting block into eighths, and then creating the goal blocks by copying the appropriate number of eighths. The tutorial concludes with verifying the solution.

What is the length of the starting block that needs to be converted?

• 1 unit

• 2 units

• 1 and 3/4 units

• 5/8 units

Which tool is NOT mentioned as available for converting the starting block?

• Coloring the block

• Copying the block

• Cutting the block

• Measuring the block

What is the fractional representation of 1 and 3/4 units?

• 7/4

• 14/8

• 5/8

• 3/4

Why is it important to convert the starting block into eighths?

• Eighths are the only available option

• Eighths are smaller units

• Eighths are larger units

• Eighths are easier to measure

How many times should the starting block be cut to convert it into eighths?

• 32 times

• 4 times

• 16 times

• 8 times

What is the equivalent of 3/4 in terms of eighths?

• 3/8

• 6/8

• 9/8

• 12/8

How many 1/8 pieces are needed to create a block of 5/8?

• 5 pieces

• 3 pieces

• 9 pieces

• 7 pieces

What is the equivalent of 7/4 in terms of eighths?

• 12/8

• 16/8

• 10/8

• 14/8

What is the final length of the second goal block in terms of eighths?

• 14/8

• 10/8

• 12/8

• 5/8

What is the final result of the conversion process?

• Only the first goal block is correct

• Both goal blocks are incorrect

• Only the second goal block is correct

• Both goal blocks are correct
