Hey bloggers!
Yesterday our teacher told us to do this algebra activity. He sent us a slide which had the instructions on what to do. For task 1, we had to make a drawing in google drawings. We needed to have 16 cans, but each box only holds 4. So we had to figure out how many boxes we needed.
For task 2, we needed to have 72 cans. Each box could hold 9 cans. The same thing as task 1, we had to figure out how many boxes we need.
This is basics of algebra since we're still learning. I still learned a lot from this task. It's basically normal maths, with addition, subtraction, multiplication, and division. But, it has variables.
I hope you learnt something from this too!
Here is my drawing of the task we had to do:👇👇👇
Great explanation of how you worked out this maths problem. There was a section in both of your answers that are unclear. Task 1 should read 16 cans, 4 cans each carton therefore 16 divide by 4 equals 'x'. That means 4 times 'x' equals 16. This means 'x' equals 4 because you know that 4 x 4 = 16. Have a think about how you answered this task and then correct your task 2 answer.
