This SAT Sphere lesson focuses on essential SAT test topics in the Unit Conversion and Rates section. You'll build a strong understanding of core concepts, learn time-saving test-taking strategies, and apply your knowledge to realistic Digital SAT practice questions.
01
Introduction to Unit Conversion and Rates
Frames the lesson goals—accurate unit translation and flexible rate reasoning on the Digital SAT—and reminds students of required prior skills: basic fraction arithmetic, ratio and proportion setup (Lesson 6), and percent multipliers (Lesson 7).
02
Conversion Factors and Dimensional Analysis
Introduces conversion factors as ratio equivalents of 1 and demonstrates the factor-label method for chaining conversions, building on proportion reasoning from Lesson 6.
03
Converting Units of Length
Teaches systematic length conversions within and between metric and imperial systems using Slide 2’s conversion-factor framework.
04
Converting Units of Area
Explains why area conversions require squaring the length factor and refreshes exponent rules from Lesson 8 to justify the procedure.
05
Converting Units of Volume
Extends Slides 3–4 ideas to three dimensions, showing that volume conversions cube the length factor and linking back to exponent properties covered earlier.
06
Guided Practice: Fundamental Conversions
Provides scaffolded problems mixing length, area, and volume to consolidate skills from Slides 3–5.
07
Understanding Rates as Ratios
Defines rates (e.g., speed, unit price, density) as ratios of unlike units and connects the concept directly to the ratio/proportion framework mastered in Lesson 6.
08
Uniform Motion: Distance–Rate–Time
Applies rate = distance ÷ time to travel scenarios, extending Slide 7 and refreshing linear-relationship ideas from earlier graphing work.
09
Work and Flow Rate Problems
Models combined work and fluid-flow situations, showing how to add rates and interpret reciprocal times, building on Slide 7’s rate definition.
10
Guided Practice: Rate Applications
Offers SAT-style questions involving speed, cost per unit, and flow scenarios to reinforce solutions from Slides 8–9.
11
Mixing Conversions with Rates
Integrates unit conversion within rate problems—such as converting mph to m/s or dollars per gallon to cents per liter—synthesizing techniques from Slides 2–10.
12
Key Takeaways and Targeted Practice
Concludes with a mini-quiz and summary that highlights when to convert first versus compute rates first, tying back to earlier lessons on ratios, percentages, and exponents.
