We can fit approximately 6 peanuts per 1/3 cup, equaling 18 peanuts per cup. 
There are two cups per pint so that's 36 peanuts per pint.
There are four cups per quart so  there are 72 packing peanuts per quart.
There is 4.227 cups in a liter,  our answer came out to be 76.086, so we rounded our answer to 76.
For two liter, we could've either multiplied 76.086 by 2, or we could've multiplied 18 by 8.454. Either way, our answer was 152.172, which we rounded  ]]> 2019-09-03 12:44:29 UTC https://padlet.com/savannahzink/u0fbner3jz5g/wish/379413400 abigailcapel https://padlet.com/savannahzink/u0fbner3jz5g/wish/379418183 one cup = 0.125 oz.

We have seen many guess how many blank are in this jar, which is what this puzzle is.This time though we are using an actual process meant to make us more accurate. We can of course apply this to other jars but we like the thrill of guessing more than doing math.

What do you need to know?
The first thing we need to know is how many peanuts we can fit into 1/3 of a cup, then a cup, then a quart, a liter, and two liters, we also need to know  the 'conversions' so that the math will come out correct.

What collaborative tool can your group use to brainstorm the information you need and the research you've completed?
The collaborative tool we used was Padlet. We wanted something other than the usual Google Drive, so we decided to mess around with Padlet. Padlet offered quite a few ways to edit and organize our information in a way that was fun and interesting.
What's the best way to document the process?
The best way to document it is to put it in two places. The first place to put them is on adlet and on a sheet of notebook paper.
What materials do you have to work with?
We have google that we can ask any questions, calculators, and paper and pencils to write anything done.

Is there a particular process you should observe?

Where is the information you need?

  Don't forget to document and hyperlink them.Where will you find that information?

Document the links.  Are they reliable?

What will you use to present your answer?

  All of your steps, math included, will have to be demonstrated.  What's the best way to do it?

How will you test your hypothesis?
We will test our hypothesis by actual seeing how many can fit in a two liter bottle.

What can you use or create to help you find the answer?
We can create a gallon man to help us figure out pints and quarts for the questions.

What would you have done differently if you had this to do again?  What worked? 
Something that would make it easier is using a different measurement so that there's no decimals in the answer. What worked for us was sorting out the conversions and measurements so that we knew our information was at least logical.
What didn't? 

Share your final research with me! ]]> 2019-09-06 12:35:31 UTC https://padlet.com/savannahzink/u0fbner3jz5g/wish/380847239
