Algebra

Today Room 10 solved a level 4 algebra problem to calculate how much medicine would be used by a father and a daughter . On sunday both of them went to the pharmacy to get a medicine for their cough and each day the father drinks 50 mls the same concept goes with the daughter except she takes 15 mls a day. As a class we solved the problem after we turned it into a chart to show our learning.

Tia and Tom algebra.

Today Room 10 solved a level 4 algebra problem to calculate how much money would be spent and how much was earnt by two twins. On sunday Tom one of the twins started of with $20.00 and spent $2.00 each day. Tia the  other twin started of with $0.00 and earned $2.50 each day. The strategy I used to help me calculate this problem was a small and simple one I simply counted in twos and by looking at this chart you can see what day Tia overlapped her twin brother friday . We used a line chart to show our thinking at the end Tia had $12.50 and Tom had $12.
