If you struggle with maths , place value, then I am here to help you and explain a certain SATS style question. Sometimes teachers can help but most of the time ,what they say goes in one ear and straight out of the other. So if you are reading this post, then you are in luck because I am going to do a step by step guide on how to solve the question below:

  A shop sells candles.      A plain candle which costs 35p each.     A star candle which costs 60p each.   And a stripe candle which costs 85p each.

Sapna buys 4 star candles and 2 stripe candles, how much does she pay altogether?                            So, first you read the question carefully. Then look at the writing that is in bold, which is altogether, and see what that word means. So the word altogether means you have to add in this certain problem.

Now you look at the question again and it says, ‘ Sapna buys 4 star candles.‘  So now you look at the star candles, and it says a star candle costs 60p each. Next you look at the 4 , because it says she buys 4 candles, and 60p , because that is how much one star candle costs, so now you times them together, which = 240p/ £2.40p.

So now you do the next step to the question, which is about the 2 stripe candles. Then you look at how much 1 stripe candle costs, which is 85p. Next you times 85p by 2 because Sapna bought 2 stripe candles. This = 170p/ £1.70p.

After that you add the costs of all the candles that Sapna bought, which was the 4 star candles which= £2.40p, and the 2 stripe candles which = £1.70. Afterwards you add them together which = £4.10p

Please comment if this helped you out. By KG

what you will need 

 paper, pencil 

Method 

1. Look at your units.

2. If it is 5 or above it will go to the nearest number.

3. But if it is 4 or below it stays the same.

5. And you have your number.

Today in maths I found a pattern of converting all many ninths equals to the same numerator.If you had 2/9 in decimals it will be 0.22 that is the pattern what i have found it works on any one but when you get to wholes it is a bit different you see how many nines there are in the wholes and after the decimal point it will go back to the oringinal pattern Thank you for listening to this I will aprechiate all of this please comment down below

BIDMAS is a method what every one can use and today I am going to talk through the steps

B is for brackets you always need to do the part in brackets first if you don’t have any brackets move on to the next step

I is for indices and indices mean square numbers or cube really anything with a little number on top.

D is for division super easy the best way to do it is the bus stop method

M is also very easy it means multiplication a quick way to do it is the colom method but if that is tricky just do a grid method

A is for addition and the best way to do it is in colom method as well

S is for subtraction you can also use this in colom method aswell.

If you follow these steps it will lead to success

If I had 4 lots of holly wreaths with eight leaves on , how many holly leaves will there be on twelve wreathes?

If there was  80 people coming to my christmas party , 1/4 of them were adults who does drink , another 1/4 was adults who doesn’t drink and the rest was children. How many children are there at the party?

Shapes can have different names. Like a rectangle is sometimes called a square because it is bigger and it has the same amount of  vertices and faces and also edges! So technically they are both the same and both are parallelograms!

There are two different types of shapes like 2D and 3D. 2D shapes are ones that you can’t hold and they are flat. 3D shapes you can hold and pick up.

A parallel shape is a shape where the 2 line don’t meet. A quadrilateral is a shape with four sides like a square or a rectangle.

Fun fact

Did you know that 2D square has a different name in the 3D world? It’s called a cube.

What is Parallelogram?

Parallel lines is something in most shapes.Parallelogram is where 2 sets of lines never meet together. E.g. of some Parallelogram shapes, square,rectangle,diamondand many more…. So today I hope you learned a little more about shapes

This blog post will tell you all the facts of quadrilaterals .

This  is an really important fact that you need to know . Rectangles are shapes that a have lines that will never meet . For example a square has 2 sets of parallel line . The opposite lines go across in train track 1 set up and 1 sat across . Another shape is a kite the lines of this shape will never meet , just like a rectangle  and a rhombus. ✅

But some parallel line shapes have 1 set of parallel lines . One shape that we know is a trapezium and that has 1 set that will never meet that goes across . But the 2 lines  that go up will meet and then the trapezium will then form into a triangle .

Now I will tell you all the types of parallelograms. Squares , rectangles , rhombus , kite /diamond  , isosceles  trapezium and a normal trapezium . And that is all you need to know!
