Countdown – Part 2…
Posted On 13 Sep 2013
I have been so impressed with the response to the first Countdown question. Well done to those of you who got the correct answer!
So due to popular demand, here is another one to have a go at while you are eating your tea…
100, 1, 4, 4, 5, 7
Target: 413
I will pick three random winners from a hat on Monday, so make sure you have blogged your corrrect working before then. Remember you need to get the target number exactly to be in with a shout of winning a prize!
Best of luck!
How many ways can you get to the answer Mr Currie?
4×100=400
2×7=14
-1=13
400+13=413
4×100=400
5+7=12+1=13
400+13=413
4 x 100 = 400 7 + 5 = 12 + 1 = 413 .
100×4=400
400+7=407
407+5=412
412+1=413
or…
100×4=400
4×5=20
1×7=7
400+20-7=413
100 x 4 = 400 + 7 + 5 + 1 = 413 100 + 5 = 105 x 4 = 420 – 7 = 413
4X100=400
7+5=12
12+1=13
400+13=413
100×4=400 5+7+1=13 400+13=413
I enjoyed visiting your class the other day and listening to how much you enjoy maths, class 5.
Only one I’m afraid
4+ 100 =104 x 4 =416 -7= 409 -1 =408 +5 = 413
Good luck everybody!
My brain has been slow today HAHAHAHAHA! Now I am feeling better
WAHAHAHAHAHAH!
100 + 4 = 104 x 4 = 416- 7=409 +5 = 414 -1 = 413!
4×100=400 + 7 + 5 = 413
+ 1 = 413
I hope I get it right , I think it’s right!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Congratulations to Sophie, Lucy and Lewkas who were our winners from the draw!
Thanks Mr Mastrelli.
I know it is late but here’s my answer
5 x 4 – 7 =13
13 x 1 = 13
100 x 4 = 400
400 + 13 = 413
I’m excited for my first day on Monday!!!
