Question 1 :
Annie has been asked to calculate 1.7 + 6 divided by 2 . She claims the answer is 3.85 . Do you agree ? Explain why or why not .
Answer :
I don't agree because she didn't follow the BEDMAS rules. If she did 6 divided by 2 first, she would of got 3 and her answer would have turned out to be 4.7.
Question 2 :
Put brackets in the following expression to get the largest value possible . What probelm solving strategy did you use ?
Answer:
Do 6.4 divided by 4 to get 1.6. Then do 3 x 2.8 to get 8.4 and then do the final part which is 8.4 +1.6 to get 10.
