We are learning to solve division problems. Sometimes problems do not share into equal groups and there are some left over. In division these are called remainders. Our challenge today was to find out how many weeks babies were in their mothers' tummies. It was a challenge.
Bella, Teague and Henrietta shared their learning on the interactive whiteboard.
A cat is in the mums tummy for 63 days.
Thomas worked out it was 9 weeks
63 divided by 7= 9
A possum is in the mums tummy for 12 days.
Caitlyn worked it out it was 1 week and 5 days.
12 divided by 7= 1 r5
A challenge for you to try.
A human baby is in the mothers tummy for 9 months. How many weeks is it in her tummy?
How many days would it be?
Good work guys i really like your math
