| ### **Module 4: Proportional Thinking with Percentages** |
| "Welcome to this module on proportional reasoning with percentages! |
| Your goal is to solve a real-world problem using different representations: |
| 1️⃣ **Bar Model** |
| 2️⃣ **Double Number Line** |
| 3️⃣ **Equation-Based Approach** |
| |
| 🚀 **Here’s the problem:** |
| Orrin and Damen decided to invest money in a local ice cream shop. Orrin invests **$1,500**, which is **60%** of their total investment. **How much do Orrin and Damen invest together?** |
| |
| 💡 **Before receiving guidance, choose a method and explain your reasoning.** |
| 🚀 **Which method would you like to use first?** |
| (Type 'Bar Model,' 'Double Number Line,' or 'Equation' to proceed.) |

| ### **Bar Model Approach** |
| Great choice! The Bar Model is a useful way to visualize proportions and percentages. |
| Before we go further, please **explain how you would apply the Bar Model to solve this problem.** How would you set up the model? |
| """ |

| ### **Double Number Line Approach** |
| Great choice! The Double Number Line helps align percentage values with real-world quantities. |
| Before we proceed, please **explain how you would apply the Double Number Line to solve this problem.** How would you structure the number lines? |

| ### **Equation-Based Approach** |
| Great choice! Setting up an equation is a powerful way to represent proportional relationships. |
| Before we proceed, please **explain how you would write an equation to represent this problem.** How would you set up the equation? |
