Problem Solving Maths Equations

Hi Fellow viewers,Have you ever tried solving your own question? Because today Kea had to come up with a question and turn it into a math problem. This included showing 3 strategies of how we worked it out. I only could come up with 2 because I used Division of Fractions as my equation. 

I included a recording of my working out on a whiteboard so you could see what I was trying to explain. I found it hard to explain it on the slides so my 2 recordings are there. I used this method because I wanted to challenge myself.

 Do you know how to solve division of fractions? If so where did you learn it and do you have a similar way of solving it as did I?

 Hi bloggers today I went to Whaea Sams workshop and solved an equation. So now she gave us a assignment for the next challenge. The question was. A restaurant allows 30 people at a time. How many tables can hold all 30? I dont remember the question well but it was something like that. Here is my working out:

Subtraction of Fractions.

 Hello Fellow bloggers, today kea had a task called " How to ... Challenge. this challenge was to show a skill or hobby you have learned over lockdown. I have made a challenge to show you called Subtraction of fractions. Subtraction of fractions is when you have to subtract the numerator and the denominator. You also have to find the LCM or least common multiple meaning the number closest to it. Here is a tutorial showing you how to solve it. 

So my challenge for you is to solve this equation ( this / equals the line in the fraction. )

8  5/4 - 4  8/9 =? Use the steps I showed before - it will help. And for a clue the LCM is 36 because 9 x 4=36 and 4 x 9 = 36.
