                                 In problem solving we are learning proportions and ratios
                                 I can solve problems like : On the weekend, Tylah made a chocolate cake. If flour made up 65% of the mixture what percentage of the cake is not flour? 


   65% +  =100%
   65%+30%=95%
    95%+5%=100%                 35% is the answer






               

Maths Talk at Hoon Hay School

At our school we work with a maths mate and share our thinking with them. We ask questions about our maths and if we aren't sure of something, we explain how we do it. We know that 2 brains are often better than one and we enjoy working collaboratively. 

Today Anya and I worked on solving this problem by doubling the 16.

Emily-Rose hung out 6 loads of washing for her Mum. Each load contained 16 items of clothing. How many items of clothing did she hang out?.                                                                          

Today we did maths and me and Anya solved 16 groups of 6 and we used this strategy and or answer is ninety six how would you solve this problem? and what answer would you get
