With Tidy numbers there is two way syou can do this. Option one If I had 98+67 I would plus two to the 98 so it becomes a hundred so that means I have to minus two to the 67 which is know 65. So know the question is 100+65=165.
Option two Plus three onto the 67 so its know 70 so then you have to minus two of the 98 so it's now 96. So know the question is 70+67=137.
With decimals it is the same.
What do these equal?
97+85=
6.5-9.2=
108-67=
65.5+9.5=
Hi Benjamin
ReplyDeleteGood google board on tidy numbers. I just note that some of the answers aren't quite correct. With the 20.8 + 62.6 if you had + 0.2 to the 20.8 it will make it 21 not 30. Do you want to try doing it again if you have time? Well done though on following on from your workshop
