Opens on Chapters 13 and 14’s example: Ruby’s 27 red beads and 35 blue beads (Chapter 13). For Chapter 14’s unit bars, choose a kind under “Units”: it starts on Ali and Jada’s 48 stickers.

From the book, Chapters 13 and 14. Ruby’s beads are one bar in two parts: 27 + 35. Ali has 3 times as many stickers as Jada and they have 48 together: Jada’s bar is one unit and Ali’s is three, so 4 units are 48 and a unit is 12. Ali has 36, and 24 more than Jada. With algebra it is x + 3x = 48; the bar is the same equation, drawn.
