2)  Painter Problem:  Know how to find equivalent ratios to know which paint is redder.  Also,  it may be helpful to know how to draw pictures to show how many times more white paint there is compared to red paint.

3)  Lemonade Problem:  Be able to find an equivalent ratio that will serve a specific number of people.  For example  2 cups of concentrate to 4 cups of water.  If everyone gets one cup how could you use the same recipe to serve 12 people?
