Wednesday 6th May 2020 - Maths

Good morning Year 3,

Last night I went for a run and I came back to Nabeelah sitting up! Now all we need is for her to be able to crawl and the real trouble will begin!




Try to solve these equations mentally fist before checking your answers with a written method.

Can you solve this old riddle? Idriss is very confused by it! 😵

  1. 2 times 0 =0
    75 divided by 5 = 15
    8 times 2 = 16
    53+40=93

    the man can get the fox and the corn then he could get the chicken last

    1. Good work with the equations, Shanel.

      The man can only take one thing in his boat at a time, so he will not be able to take the fox and the corn together.

  2. By the way Nabeelah looks so cute and I wish I could have a baby like her

  3. 2*0=2
    75/5=15
    8*2=16
    53+40=90

    The man needs to take the chicken first. He can then go back to collect the fox. He picks up the chicken again otherwise the fox will eat it. He puts the chicken in the boat and rows to the other side and swaps with the corn. He then goes back to the fox and drops off the corn. He then goes back to collect the chicken one last time and brings that over.

  4. Great work Nabeelah!
    A) 0
    B) 15
    C) 16
    D) 93

    The man takes the chicken to the other side leaving the fox and the corn.
    Then the man takes the corn and swaps the corn for the chicken.
    He leaves the chicken on the first side and takes the fox to the other side and leaves it with the corn.
    He then goes back and collects the chicken to bring it to the other side. He has now moved everything across the river.

    I think the man should take the corn because it is not that heavy

  6. Great reasoning to get everything across the river, Year 3! Well done Freya and Sophia.
