Mrs Rigby’s Epic Fail

In  maths➕➖✖️➗ in year 6,we have had a paper🗒 to mark that has been done wrong by Mrs Rigby(who is our teacher👩‍🏫).We have had a chance to mark her work and this is one of the questions that she has done extremely incorrect❌.

In this question❓She has done the correct workings out yet wrote the wrong answer in the answer box 📦. We have worked out that next time our (amazing and beautiful) teacher 👩‍🏫 does the test📈She will have to watch out what she writes and check ☑️ her work before she hands it in to the ‘teacher’.👩🏿‍🎤

Epic Hard Question Explained

Here is a super hard question answered!

Question

Can you find a 6-digit number that is the same number rounded to the nearest 100,000 and 10,000?

Answer

This answer is so annoying 🙁 !

It is obvious!

Are you ready?

It is………………………………………………………………

100,001!

This is because rounded to the nearest 100,000 is 100,000 and to the nearest 10,000 is also 100,000!

Annoying, right?

Hahahahaha!

Maths Experts Blog – How To – Column Addition And Subtraction

Column Addition

  1. First choose a random sum for example 546+982.
  2. Now write the number 546 and then 982 underneath it.
  3. Don’t forget to put the two under the six, the eighty under the forty and the nine hundred under the five hundred.
  4. Add together the six and the two, 6+2=8.
  5. Add together the forty and the eighty, 40+80=120.
  6. Add together the five hundred and the nine hundred, 500+900=1400, but you have an extra hundred from 120 so it equals 1500.
  7. You then have to add one thousand.
  8. Then you have to write the numbers in order, one thousand, five hundred, twenty and eight or 1528.

Column Subtraction

  1. First choose a random sum for example 156-32.
  2. Now write the number 156 and then 32 underneath it.
  3. This time make sure that the two is under the six, and the thirty under the fifty, but leave nothing under the one hundred.
  4. Subtract two from six, 6-2=4.
  5. Subtract thirty from fifty, 50-30=20
  6. Leave the 100 as it is.
  7. 156-32=124
