P3B have been solving problems in Maths. Mrs. Thomson asked us; Are we curious mathematicians? Do we want to get better at asking mathematical questions? We said YES!<\/p>\n
Our problem was from the EnRich Maths website: Eggs in a Basket.<\/p>\n
There are 3 baskets, a brown one, a red one and a pink one.<\/p>\n
There is a total of 10 eggs.<\/p>\n
We had clues:<\/p>\n
The brown basket holds 1 more egg than the red basket.<\/p>\n
The red basket has 3 fewer eggs than the pink basket.<\/p>\n
The challenge was to find out how many eggs were in each basket.<\/p>\n
What’s your answer?<\/p>\n
We found out that some people got confused with fewer eggs in the red basket. When there are 3 fewer in the red basket you need to add 3 to the pink basket.<\/p>\n
It was fun! Sam E<\/p>\n
It was epic! Lloyd<\/p>\n
It was problem solving fun. Charlie H<\/p>\n
Drawing pictures helped me. Eliana<\/p>\n
Cubes helped me and my partner. Niamh.<\/p>\n
We found when we do it in order e.g 1 then 2 then 3 in the brown basket it helped us to get the answer.<\/p>\n
