Look at the two scenarios. What do you notice?

A: During hibernation, a brown bear's heart rate drops from approximately 50 beats per minute (bpm) to about 10 bpm. B: A little brown bat has a heart rate that can be as high as 400 bpm. During hibernation, it can drop to 1-fortieth of that.

  1. How are scenarios A and B mathematically the same, and how are they different?
  2. A and B are the same becauseā€¦
  3. A and B are different becauseā€¦
  4. Create a third scenario that compares 2 amounts using fractions or multiplicative comparison. Explain how your scenario is the same as scenarios A and B, and how it is different.
