into it
question number one Leia is fascinated
with ladybirds
now she counted how many ladybird she
could find each day for a whole week
here the results are shown in the
picture below so we've got the Lady Bird
Z I'm gonna work through this with you
Monday he's one two three four Tuesday
one two three and a half Wednesday
there's them there so they in the whole
week she's done Monday to Friday now
this key is important he shows one
ladybird actually equals four ladybirds
so on Monday she counted four eight
twelve sixteen on Tuesday four eight
twelve and that counts as two sets for
team so on and so forth so the question
is how many ladybirds delayers see
altogether so we have to work out how
many ladybirds there are based on this
key here on the top right hand corner so
first of all sixteen because we know
four times four is sixteen then on
Tuesday it's fourteen because it's
actually three times four is twelve plus
two because that's a half because that
one there is just one that part there
okay so that's fourteen on the next one
that's 21 because we've got one two
three four five full ones which is
twenty and then we've got that one
element because that's a quarter of a
ladybird the quarter four is one here
we've got nine because that's two
ladybirds full and then one in the top
left corner which is a quarter of the
four which is one is
and then finally twelve so we add all of
those up together to get the answer
72 okay so I'd like you guys to have a
go at this question in a similar format
so it's your turn now and I'm going to
do this periodically through this lesson
so please do put your answer to question
two in the comment section below the
video please do that and I'll come on
each day and mark them for you okay
you'll notice on the right hand side
here there's a timer and this is gonna
give you about 12 to 15 seconds to
answer the question Leia is fascinated
with ladybirds she counted how many
ladybirds
she could find each day for a week her
results are shown in the picture below
so he's different than the previous one
so there's the key the key is different
eight ladybirds
per one okay so I want you to answer the
question how many ladybirds delay I see
altogether in the whole week and you got
15 seconds to answer this question if
you need more time because the time
constraint is quite tight please just
pause the video but make sure you put
your answer to question two in the
comment section below
off you go
okay so if you need a bit more time like
I say pause the video put your answer in
the comment section below and let's now
move on to question three don't forget
you're gonna get these slides so you can
practice with these in your own time
question three katie is given weekly
pocket money for her part-time jobs here
is how much she earns across six weeks
so week one forty pound sixty week - she
gets thirty two pound 20 week three
seventy five eighty week four
twenty-five week five fifteen fifty and
week six twenty pounds 90 so work out
the weekly average so how much does she
get on average per week and there are
the options a 20 pound be thirty two
pound fifty C third and five and D forty
pound fifty now this is something you
can't do by guessing so you gonna have
to work it out here's how to work it out
and then I'm gonna get you guys to try
on yourself step one add the six week
amounts together so add all of them
together and that will give you two
hundred and ten pounds then to work out
the weekly average simply divide the
total which is 210 by Cinch six to reach
the average which is thirty-five pounds
on average okay so C is the answer so
step one at the six week amounts
together and then step two divide the
total by six the number of weeks to
reach the average which is 35 pounds
okay so now it's your turn
again put your answer to the following
question which is for in the comment
section below the video please now we're
gonna use the same timing you get about
15 seconds for this one and the question
is Jonathan is given weekly pocket money
for his part-time jobs here is how much
he earns across five weeks 4860 twelve
twenty thirty four pounds eighty twenty
three pounds and eighteen pounds fifty
please work out the weekly average and
there are your options twenty-seven
pound forty two 24 pound 24 25 pound 20
and 27 pound 24 so I'll start the timer
if you need more time please pause the
video please put your comment your
answer in the comment section below the
video thank you
well done if you manage to answer that
moving on to question five I think of a
number I then multiply that number by
four next I subtract four
the answer is 20 what was the number I
started with is it a 6b 7c eight or d-10
so this is how to work it out so I think
of any of the numbers I start with six I
multiply it by four to get 24 minus 4
and that gives me the answer I could
quickly try B but it would be seven
times four which would be 28 minus 4
would give me 24 which isn't the right
answer so it's a process of elimination
and the first one I tried which is a
just happens to be the answer okay
excellent so now it's your turn I want
you to have a go at this please put your
answer to question six in the comment
section below the video I think of a
number I then multiply it by eight next
I subtract 21 and the answer is 67 what
was the number I started with is a 8 b9c
10 or D 11 and you've got the time it
takes the timer to come down to put your
answer in the comment section below the
video for marking thank you
like I say you need to pause the video
for more time please feel free to do so
um I hope you enjoyed the video so far
please don't forget to give it a thumbs
up if you're enjoying it I'd really
appreciate that question 7 we got loads
more to work through fill in the missing
numbers to make these calculations
correct so these two numbers that need
to go there and add 56 equals 100 so
what we need to do is is minus 56 from
100 to get the answer so the answer
would be 44 which is C so now it's your
turn to I've got a similar question
please put your answer to question 8 in
a comment section below the video for
marking filling the missing numbers to
make these calculations correct 6 times
something something equals 300 is it a
50 B 30 C 45 or D 30 you've got the time
it takes the time and to count down to
put your answer in the comment section
below the video thank you
great progress question number nine
below is a recipe which shows how to
make a delicious fruit smoothie now this
recipe is for six people this is
important so 900 milliliters of apple
juice 3 mangos three bananas 6 oranges
and 300 milliliters of milk how many
bananas would you need to make a fruit
smoothie for just two people is it a 0 B
1 C 2 or D 3 well if that recipes for 6
people they'll know we need to do is
divide it by the two to get the answer
which is 1 okay so the answer there is
one because if 3 bananas is for 6 people
you need just one for 2 people

answer to question 10 in the comment
section below the video

question 13 what is the mean temperature
the average temperature so what we would
need to do first of all so on the left
of this chart this graph we've got
temperature and then we've got the month
January to December so we've got 12
months what is the mean temperature and
the options here are a eight point four
five degrees C B seven point eight four
degrees C C 10 point seven five degrees
C or D twelve point five two degrees C
so step one add up the temperature for
all of the twelve months so what we'd
have to do here is go six there six
there 8 10 14 16 16 16 that's thirteen
because that's in between 12 and 14 10 8
and 6 and we get the answer 129 on the
right hand side then step 2 divide 129
by 2 12 months to get the average you've
done this before
and the correct answer is ten point
seven five degrees so well done if
you've got that right okay your turn
have a go this question put your answer
to question 14 in the comment section
below the video please for mark
what is the average temperature the mean
temperature because mean is the same as
average between the months of July and
December so you want July and December

had to come down to put your answer in
the comments section below is it eleven
point five degrees C ten point five
degrees C twelve point five degrees C or
