Christian’s family are making some banana poke for a big family gathering at the Akapuanga Hall.
They need 12 tablespoons of coconut cream to make 1 container. How many tablespoons of coconut cream will they need for 38 containers?
They need 252 grams of arrowroot starch to make 1 container. How many grams will they need for 38 containers?
They need 2.6 grams of bananas for 1 container. How many grams of banana’s will they need for 38 containers?
First me and my group thought that we should use timetables. Then we started to ask question like if we were going to use our timetables we would have to know what we were going to times. Then Christian said”what if we do 30x12=360 because then all we would have to find out is what to times the 8 with” so we when with christian’s idea. Then we said”why don’t we just times 8 with 12 like what we did on 30x12” so we did 8x12=96. Then we did 360+96=456. So we work out that christian’s family would have to use 456 tablespoons of coconut cream to make 38 banana poke.
Then me and my group had to think of how to try and work out the answer to the next question. First we did thought that we should use timetables again because that is how we got the answer to the first question. So we did 252x30=7560 arrowroot starch then we knew that we had to times another number so then we did 252x8=2016 arrowroot starch. Then we did 2016+7560=9576 grams of arrowroot starch. So we found out that christian’s family will have to use 9576 grams of arrowroot starch to make 38 banana poke.
We had to think really hard on the next question because the next question was using decimal points so that would make it a lot harder.
We still did the same thing as the last question we had to do 2.6x 30=78. Then we did 2.6x8=20.8. Then we wanted to check that the answer was right. When we checked we got all answers right. But then we had to work out what was 20.8+78 we worked out that 20.8+78=98.8. We also found out that christian’s family had to use 98.8 bananas to make 38 banana poke.
