Ascott Portfolio 2013 Maths level 3 Addition and Subtraction

Show how you solve these number problems.  

I am able to solve addition and subtraction using place values and compatible numbers to solve a level 3 work sheet.

1.  Maraea is saving to buy a cat.  In 3 weeks she has saved $9, $56 and $72.

Show how to work out how much she has saved altogether.

$9 + $6 + $2= $17  $50 + $70= 120  $17 + 120= $137

I can see you were using the place value - how about compatible numbers

72 + 8 (from the 9) = 80

56 + 1 (left from 9) = 57

80 + 20 + 37 = 137

Can you try and do the other do this way and then post

2.  Tom saves his money each month to buy a dog.  In 4 months he has saved $36, $78, $203, and $123.  Show how to work out how much he has saved altogether.

I take one out of the 8 and add it to the 6 which equals 7.

7 + 123 ( I took out the 7 out of the 37 ) = 130.

7 + 203 ( I took out the 7 out of the 77 remember I took 1 out of the 8 ) = 210

70 + 30 = 100                 

130 + 210 + 100 = 440

3.   Te Ao is saving to buy a horse.  So far she has saved $17, $160, $72, and $148.  Show how to work out how much she has saved altogether.

$7 + $2 + $8= $17   $10 + $60 + $70 + $40= $180   $100 + $100= $200

$17 + $180 + $200= $397

4.  Petelo has $ 147 as a present.  He spent $78 at the shop.  How much has he got left?

$100 - $70= $30   $30 - $8= $22    

$22 + $7 + $40= $69

Ascott Portfolio 2013 Multiplication level 3

1.    When Jasmine makes lemonade she uses 6 lemons for every litre of water. How many lemons does she need for

i)     2 litres of water?  6 x 2=12  ✔

ii)    3 litres of water?  6 x 3=18  ✔

iii)   10 litres of water? 6 x 10=60 ✔

2.   Devinda is doing some baking. When he uses his mum's recipe he can make 8 muffins. When he doubles the recipe he gets 16 muffins. How many lots of the recipe does he need to make

i)     24 muffins?  8 x 3=24  ✔

ii)    32 muffins?  8 x 4=32✔

iii)   56 muffins? 8 x 7=56 ✔

Ascott Portfolio 2013 Maths level 3 fraction

✔ LEVEL 3 FRACTION

I am learning to solve fractions using halving and doubling.

This task is about finding fractions of a given number.

A farmer is selling some of his animals.

1.  The farmer sells ¼ of his 72 cows.  Show how to work out how many cows he sess.

18 x 2= 36   or   Half of 72 = 36  Half of 36 = 18

18 x 4=72 -

Great Ascott!  You used your knowledge of double to work this out. ✔

Thank you Mrs Tui I’ll keep up the good work.

2. He sells ⅓ of his 45 pigs.  Show how to work out how many pigs he sees.

15 x 3 = 45 or 45 divide 3 = 15

Ascot I am not sure you understand.  You have to share 45 into 3 equal groups.

3.   He sells ⅙ of his 84 sheep.  Show how to work out how many sheep he sells.

84 divide 6 = 14 or 14 x 6 = 84

- How do you know to go 14 x 2?  The idea is to divide 84 into 6 groups -  80 divide by 6 =  10 and remainder of 20 + 4 = 24 divide by 6 = 4

Therefore 10 + 4 = 14.  that is why you have the fourteen.  

You need to practise the fraction more.

Description about me

I am a young boy that has dark brown eyes and short eyelashes.  I am medium build and a handsome brown boy.  I have straight black hair and I am tall. Sometimes I'm tidy head to toe or scruffy.

I am accepting because I will always accept things that people want me to do. I am brave because I face my fears and I am not scared to share my learning.

I like playing rugby league because I am ruff person and fit.  I like singing as well I have a low voice and a high voice sometimes.  I like singing in the shower even before sleeping.

I thank God for creating me and I’ll love me.  

My Favourite

My hobby is to play rugby league. The ball goes high, low, left, and right just like a roller coaster. Greg Inglis inspired me to play rugby league because he’s entertaining to watch and he’s fast. But mostly when I have a rugby game I look forward meeting new friends.

Happy Mothers Day!

Happy Mothers Day!

My mum is the air that I breath, she is the world to me. I have never met a better mum than mine. I thank my mum for everything she has done for me. I thank God for giving me a grateful mum.

Thank you mum for supporting me through the struggles I have had in the past. Thank you mum for being the best mum you could be.
