Summer Learning Journey Week 1 Day 2 pt 3

Hello this week is the first week of Summer Learning Journey. This is Week 1 Day 2 Activity 3.

Hello today we had to work out this maths problem:

Lets imagine that you are given a cactus for your birthday. To keep it alive you must give it 3 ml of water every day. Over one full year, how much water will you need to give your cactus plant?

So the way I would solve this is with Written Form. So I would start with a drawing like this
Then I would go 3 x 5=15 so I put the 5 down and carry the 1. Then I go 3 x 6= 18 + the 1 we carried on would be 19, so we put the 9 down and carry the 1. then we go 3 x 3=9 +1=10 but because this is the last number we can just put down the 10. so the end result is drum roll please *drum drum drum* 


1095!

  1. Hi Jasper,

    You have explained your working out extremely well - I could follow exactly how you solved this maths problem. Do you enjoy maths? I like maths as you either get the answer right or wrong! I feel like a detective when I am trying to solve a tricky maths problem!

    I am really enjoying reading your blog. You have been very busy with the Summer Learning Journey already!
