baking

I Used maths when I had to go to my friends house and I had to come back in an hour and a half ,so I counted on what time I had to come back.

When I had to go to the shops I had thirteen pounds and I had to pay three pounds so I took away the three from thirteen pounds.

Once I had to use maths when I was baking a cake I had to measure the exact measurement for the ingredients and check the temperature on the oven.

In the holidays I had a tricky situation to sort out but I knew I could do it using my Maths skills.

I  was baking a cake and I had to know how many grams of flour , sugar and butter to put in.  I had to find out how many tablespoons  went into 150g. I soon found out that 6 tablespoons are in 150g and I speedily put that amount into the cake mixture.

I had to read scales to measure out my ingredients, I had to use temperature to check the oven was hot enough and I used time skills by calculating how long my cake needed. If it needed 45minutes and I put it in the over at 12:30pm, I knew it needed taking out at…1:15pm.

without my maths skills, my cooking skills would not be possible.
