Group 1 Problem T1 W4

Please solve the following problems . Show your working so that we can understand your thinking.


GI Zoo Prices
        Adult:              $14  
                                          Child under 12 : #


  1. It cost the Naidoo family of 2 adults and 3 children $61 to go to the zoo. What is the missing price on the board?
14 x 2 = 28
$61 - $28 = $33
$33 divided by 3= $11
So it costs $11 per child under 12..


  1. For 4 days of the week the zoo has a concession for schools. $10 each for the first 100 children and then $12 each for the others. What would a school pay if there are 127 children?


100 x 10 = 1000 and 12 x 27 = 324 so 1000 + 324 = $1,324
  1. On a Friday evening  the zoo has a special rate for  school children:for every paid 7 children 2 get to go in free.  What would it cost a school with  147 children?
147 divided by 9 = 16 r 3
16 x 7 = 112
112 x 11 = 1,232

1,232 + 33 = $1,265

Today I just finished playing this math game and guess what my score was, 17. I know right now that this is so low for a Yr 7 like me. In this game, it was a combination of all the different operation. I am hoping to have a better score next time.
