Serious Subtraction 2

  Serious Subtraction


We are learning to solve subtraction problems using whole and decimal numbers.



Times Table Practice:
3 x 3 = 9 5 x 5 = 25 8 x 7 = 56 12 x 10 = 120 4 x 6 = 24 5 x 7 = 35 2 x 4 = 8 3 x 8 = 24 9 x 8 = 72 4 x 7 = 28 9 x 7 = 63



Your sister gives you $125 to spend on lollies. If you spend $65 how much money would you have left over? $60
65 + 60 = 125



Zaeeda has bought her sister a new puppy. She has $500 in her bank account as she heads to the shops.




She first buys a dog bed for $60. How much money does she have left? 440
60 - 500 = 440





She then buys a bowl for $25. How much does she have left?$ 415
25 - 440 = 415





Then she buys 3 chew toys. Each toy costs $3.50. How much does she have left?$405.50c
$3 x $3.50 = 10.50c =$405.50c






Finally she buys a diamond collar for the dog which costs $154.50. How much is left in her account at the end of the day? $296





Kalani’s python has become ill and needs to go to the vets. He has $100 in his wallet.


The cost of the vet visit is $65.50. How much money is left in Kalani’s wallet? $35.50c





AJ is also at the vet with his rabbit. His rabbit has had expensive surgery. If AJ has 10.25 left in his bank account and he started with $525.80, how much did the surgery cost? $510.55c




Zyla’s puppy is growing every month. He used to weigh 5.67 kg but he now weighs 6.34kg. How much weight has he put on? 6.7 Grams

Your sister gives you $125 to spend on lollies. If you spend $65 how much money would you have left over? $60
60 + 65 = 125

She then gives you $234 more. How much money do you have now? $294
200 + 60 = 260     260 + 34 = 294

     
Pt England school are buying new sports gear. There is $500 in the sports budget.

500 - 50 = 450

They then buy a net for $25.  How much do they have left? $425
450 - 25 = 425

Then they buy three tennis balls. Each ball costs $3. How much do they have left? $422
425 - 3 = 422

Finally they buy a netball hoop which costs $100.  How much is left in the budget at the end? $322
422 - 100 = 322

Troy has $100 in his wallet. He spends $65.50 on a new PS4 game. How much money does he have left? $34.50c


Kahurangi wins some money and goes on a shopping spree.If he has 10.80 left in his bank account and he started with $525.80, how much did he spend? $515 
$515.00c + $10.80c = 525.80 

Zyla’s puppy is growing every month. He used to weigh 5.6 kg but he now weighs 6.3. How much weight has he put on? 7 Grams 5.6 kg + 4 grams= 6.0kg   6.0kg + 3 grams = 6.3 3+ 4= 7

factors and multiples



WALT: I am learning to identify factors and multiples




I had to find the factors of a range of numbers.




12 = 3, 6, 12, 1, 2, 4




24 = 12, 6, 3, 2, 8, 1,




36 = 6, 9, 4, 1, 36




50 = 10, 5, 50, 1, 25, 2




45 = 9, 5, 1, 45




20 = 10, 2, 5, 4, 1, 20




75 = 5, 15, 1, 75




100 = 10, 1, 100




150 = 10, 15, 1, 150





Then I listed the multiples of the following numbers, I went up to 10x




5 = 5, 10, 15, 20, 25, 30, 35, 40, 45, 50




6 = 6, 12, 18, 24, 30, 36, 42, 48, 54, 60




7 = 7, 14, 21, 28, 32, 42, 49, 56, 63, 70, 77, 84




8 = 8, 16, 24, 32, 40, 48, 56, 64, 72, 80, 88, 96




3 = 3, 6, 9, 12, 15, 18, 21, 24, 27, 30, 33, 36



15 = 15, 30, 45, 60, 75, 90, 105, 120, 135, 150, 165, 180, 195, 210, 225





The lowest common multiple (LCM) of 2 or more numbers is the smallest number that is a multiple of each of them. E.g. the lowest common multiple of 3 and 2 is 6. (they both also go into 30, but 6 is the smallest number they both go into).




I found the LCM of:




6 and 4 = 12




7 and 8 = 56




9 and 12 = 108




The highest common factor (HCF) is the highest number that can be divided exactly into each of two or more numbers.




For example, the common factors of 24 and 36 = 1, 2, 3, 4, 6, 8 and 12. So the highest common factor (H.C.F) of 24 and 36 = 12




I found he HCF of:




30 and 25 =5




14 and 21 = 7




56 and 49 =7




12 and 24 =12

Adorable Addition



Adorable Addition







We are learning to use place value to solve addition problems using whole numbers.

Multiple and factors practice

Multiples of 4 to 10 = 4, 8, 12, 16, 20,

Multiples of 5 to 10 = 5,10,15,20,25,30,35,40,45,50,55,60,65,70,75,80,85,90,95,100,105,110,115,120,125,130,135,140,145,150,155,160,165,170,175,180,185,190,195,200,205,210,215,220,225,230,235,240,245

Factors of 24 =  1, 2, 3, 4, 6, 8, 12, 24

Factors of 50 = 1, 2, 5, 10, 25, 50

Factors of 24 and 40 = 1, 2, 3, 4, 6, 8, 12, 24, 1, 2, 4, 5, 8, 10, 20, 40
     

AJ’s family are planning to build a treehouse in their garden. Some of Aj’s friends offer to help him to build it.


1. In order to start constructing the house,  AJ needs to get some wood from bunnings. His mum buys 45 planks of wood and his dad buys 132 planks of wood. How many do they have together? 177


 2. While building the house, AJ noticed that they were running out of nails so he went to buy some. They have 9 nails left at home. AJ  buys a pack of 145 nails and a pack of 50 nails. How many nails do they have now? 204 


3. To have a more stable treehouse, Jacob decided to tie the corner posts of the house to the tree itself. He used 24 cm of rope for the first post, 20cm on the second, 14cm on the third and 12cm on the fourth. How much rope was used? 70cm




4. The treehouse is almost done; all they need is to paint it. Paschal estimated that they will use 37L of white paint, 15L of green paint and 34L  of brown paint. How many litres of paint would they buy in total? 84L




5. After finishing the treehouse, AJs’ family made cookies for his friends to thank them for helping. If AJ ate 15 cookies, Jacob ate 10, Paschal ate 6  and Tisa only ate 5, how many cookies were eaten in total? 36




Show your working as you solve these problems:

145 + 235 = 280 

100 + 200 = 300
40 + 30 = 70 
5 + 5 = 10



134 + 127 = 261



1445 + 1564 = 3009




1235 + 5643 = 6878
