Abstract
A liquid flow instructional system for presenting a proportions problem and for allowing the proportions problem to be solved comprises an input container and a plurality of output containers selectively and fluidly coupled to the input container. The system has an adjustable valve having a plurality of configurable regions. Each of the plurality of configurable regions corresponds to one of the plurality of output containers. An activable switch is provided for initiating flow of liquid from the input container to the plurality of output containers in accordance with a user configuration of the plurality of configurable regions. The proportions problem is solvable by filling each of the plurality of output containers to capacity without spillage. The correspondence between the plurality of configurable regions and the plurality of output containers is indicated by a visible indicator.
