Our tactics are as follows:
- identify the pertinent information
- identify what the question is aking us to do
- work out what the first step needs to be (+, -, x, /) and what it will tell us
- decide what the next step is (do we need to use our answer from step 1?)
- check that we have answered the question
Extension
The job now is to set a mutlistep problem of your own (in the style of the ones from your homework) for your parents to solve.
Important Information
You may use a calculator to solve the problems, but you must show the sum as we hae been doing in class.
Please put all this homework into your Learning Log ready to show me on the first Monday back after half term. Thank you!
