 Each week Rangi earns $18. At the end of 5 weeks how much has Rangi earned? Lucy, Aroha, Sefton and Marcus all solve this problem in a different way. Show how each person might work it out.

18x5=90
18+18+18+18+18=90
5x18=90

5x10=50 + 5x10=50
5x20= 100-10=90

18/2=9
9x5=45 + 45=90

5x10+5x8=90

Jen ½ max ½

Max ⅔ jen ⅓

Jen ¾ max ¼

  1. Hello Kimberly I am impressed with the different maths strategies you have used to solve this problem - which one would you use? I would use 5x10+5x8=90.
