Maths

so when you  want to find the closest  number to something you find the difference between the number and the other number that you are given you could times divide add etc but you have to use the method in the right way so your trying to find 500 from 450 so you could add 50 to get their but their is another number 510 so  you could easly do  510-10=500 that  was my guide  how to find the difference between 2 numbers

A=5 B=3 C=1

say you had 3a+b=18

first you times 3 x 5= 15

and you know b=3 so you have to add 15+3=18

x=9 what is y

x+y=13

what is y? 4

so x=9 so u subtract 9 from 13

13-9=4

You are probably wondering why I am doing a maths post.I will tell you why.Are you ever struggling with place value?Do you ever think that teachers are useless and nobody can help you?Well you are lucky to be reading this!Because in this blog post I will do a step by step guide on how to work out a SATs style question(it’s easier than you think.)

Let’s say that this is our question:

____ x 10 =350.5

Step 1:

Firstly we will concentrate on the first question

If you are totally confused and are struggling with this question and thinking(WHAT IS THIS???)Then use this grid and draw it on your whiteboard or in your book/notebook.

Step 2:

Take the number 350.5 and divide by 10 (you can use this grid above to help you) Once you did that ,you will have the answer to your question.Vouila!!!
