Thinkboard - Week 4

WALT: Add and Subtract decimals.



This week we focused our learning around subtracting decimals. Something I learnt this week is to never split up the first number of the equation, while partitioning. For example: 2.867 - 0.242 would equal to 2.625. This is how I solved it.
2.867-0.002=2.865
2.865-0.04=2.825
2.825-0.2=2.652
So the answer is 2.625. As you can see I split the second number and left the first number, the same.

Thinkboard - 2

WALT: Express remainders as decimals.





This took me a while to figure out so here it is and hope you can see it. Seini (my friend) helped me and we marked each others work. There will be more of these think boards and I hope I will keep up with my work.

In Maths Teacher Lesson this week I have learnt to add when subtracting. For example: 3.364 - 5.597=?. When adding, you will take the second number and round it to the nearest whole number. Look underneath to see the whole solution.

Maths Problem Solving-Week 2

WALT: Add and Subtract Decimals.





In Maths for this week, I have learnt about subtracting decimals. I have learnt that when subtracting decimals, always go to the small number first. For example; 4.7-2.9=?. The way that I use to work this out is, 0.7-1.9=0.8. I still have these numbers leftover to subtract, 4-1=3. So the aweser must be 1.8.
