Maths Work

Yesterday for our maths activity we were working on Temperature and our negatives numbers about the weather. My group and I all worked hard and successfully finished. Here is a video of our presentation from yesterday's work:

Equivalent Fractions!

EquivalentFractions!

We are learning to add and subtract fractions with like and unlike denominators.

Levi has ¾ of a bag of lollies. If he is given another 3/12 of a bag, what fraction of a bag will he have? 1 Whole

If there were 32 lollies in the whole bag, how many lollies does

32 lollies

Bob has a 3 3/4 metre of length of wood. He cuts off 2 1/3 metres.

2 4/12

3 9/12

Maths Chocolate

Today's work we are participating in a real life problem with the Kit Kat Chocolate. Our group will need to work out how to find the fraction of whole and mixed numbers in order to keep everyone happy.

Yesterday we were left with 6 chocolate bars split between 13 children. How much chocolate would each child now receive. They get 6/13

Miss stone doesn't feel like chocolate today. How much chocolate would each child receive if there are seven chocolate bars. They will receive 7/13

There were supposed to be 14 children in our group, how much chocolate would each child receive if there were 7 chocolate bars. 7/14

Independent Maths Problems

Tama and Sina planned to save $365 for a trip. They had 3 months to save for this trip. How much should they save each week? 121.6c

Tina came to school with 3 packets of biscuits. Each packet has 13 biscuits. How many people can Tina share her biscuits with?

39 People

3 x 13 = 39, 39 people all get 1 biscuit each.

Lucy picked strawberries with her family during the summer. They get paid $7 for each kilogram of strawberries picked. How many kilograms do they need to pick if they want to earn $420?

60 kilograms. I know 7 x 6= 42. Then I knew 7 x 60= 420

Mrs Tofa went to dinner last night with her friends. It is is $26.90 per person at Genghis Khan. If there were four of them, how much did they pay together?

$107.60.  $26.90 x 4=107.60

Maths Lesson/Doubling and Halving

Today we had a lesson on doubling and halving. We had 2 equations.But you could work both problems with the same strategy. The strategy you could use with both equations is Doubling and Halving. Using Doubling and halving will give the same answer.

Here's my working out on both equations:

132x10=1320

D/12=6 and H/22=11

12x11=132 or

6x22=132

Same answer different working out.

I hope you learned something about this blog =)

IXL MATHS

Today in the morning I played on a Maths site named IXL Maths and did a Math quiz on equivalent Fractions. I enjoyed every second of it.
