We are learning to solve mathematical problems

This week we were learning to solve problems in different ways. Were looking at solving these problems about buying food and drink for Max's birthday party.

Keegan solved the first problem like this:

• 4X6 = 24 and costs $20
• 25 drinks costs $20

The second one is the best choice. You get more drinks for the same price. 

Keegan solved the second problem like this:

He said that for every $2 he can get five apples. Four two dollars give you the $8 so 4 groups of 5 will give you 20 apples. 

Great thinking and explaining, Keegan!
