Maths


Maths

Today in my class my maths group and I were working on the same question and one of them were
On Saturday we will have a fundraiser car wash for our camp. To save water, for each van we will use only 0.75 litres of water. For a small car like Miss Elia’s car we will use 0.5 litres of water.  How much water do we need to wash 5 vans? How much water do we need to wash 5 cars like Miss Elia’s car?

This is how I worked it out
  1. 0.70 x 5 = 3.5
           0.05 x 5 = 0.25
           3.0
          0.20 + 0.50 = 0.70
          0.05 + 0.00 = 0.05
         3.0 + 0.70 + 0.05 = 3.75



        2.  0.50 x 5 = 2.50
