What strategy is this:
a remainder interpretation when you need more in your quotient so nothing is left out
round up the quotient

What is the process called in multiplication and / or division when this problem 25000 / 5 is simplified to 25/5 to help you get the quotient
Tacking on zeros
In most of our paper towel labs is there a transformation of energy? Explain
NO because there is no noticeable change in any of the materials to a new substance
Which types of energy are used in turning on a light?
mechanical (the switch)

What does the letter "c" stand for in long division
to compare and check that the difference when you subtract is always smaller than the divisor
In our capillary action lab when the water travled up the paper towel, was that a transfer of energy or TRANSFORMATION of energy?
Transfer from potential to kinetic
What is the difference between a manipulated variable and a controlled variable?
Controlled has to stay the same, manipulated changes
In a rate problem what is the other name for the fraction?
Ratio
