MATHS WEEK 2 EQUATIONS:

Congratulations Room 21 for putting up the most equations for this question!!!

7 is the answer.  

What is the question/equation?

Answers:

Making mountains could be one way to illustrate it visually.  You could talk about the king of the mountain (triangle) and how it needs two numbers to reach the top, what could they be?

              7

3 4

Lots of combinations - reinforcing flexibility with Numbers.

This shows "reversibility"

Use the term ‘reversibility’ - two numbers equal the same irrespective of the order ie

3 + 4 = 7 and so does 4 +3 =7.  

This basic Maths Principle can halve the basic facts students need to learn.

0 + 7 =

1 + 6 =

2 + 5 =

3 + 4 =

4 + 3 =

5 + 2 =

6 + 1 =

7 + 0 =

We can move onto more challenging equations like...

Half of 14 is?

14  divided by 2 is?

How many times does 2 go into 14?

21 shared into 3 equal groups is --

One third of 21 is?

Answer:

10 is the fraction of a number what could the number and fraction be?

(experiment with different fractions).

10 is half of 20

So ½ of 20 is 10.

¼ of 40 is 10

Keep going..... please post in the comment box any other equations you may have.
