Activity Guide
The Math Balance is a great tool for visualizing simple mathematical equations and
number relationships. When a weight is placed on a number peg (i.e. 6) on the balance, the
weight appears to take on the numerical value of that peg and causes the balance to tilt.
In order to level the balance, a weight must be placed on the opposite side of the balance
arm, either on the equivalent peg (6) or two or more different pegs that equal the same
number (i.e. 5+1).
Suggested Activities:
ORDERED PAIRS
Find all the ordered pairs for a number by combining two weights to balance the
opposite weight. For example, place a weight on the 10. To balance, place a weight on the
9 and on the 1 (9,1) and then on the 8 and on the 2 (8,2). Continue until all ordered pairs
have been found. Find all the ordered pairs for several different numbers.
