Using models to solve word problems - Singapore Math: Whole Numbers Part 1

[@VijayaLakshmi-un3gv]

Hi 2:48, Jame got 3 times as Kavin after Kavin lost 10, so at first he had 15+20=35.

[@Octjoy]

Extremely clear explanations. I now can show my son how to solve these problems. We are so happy. Thank you.

[@inspiredLearning]

Thank you! Good Luck teaching your Son :)

can you help me on this word problems . Daisy packed 174 muffins into 40 big and small boxes. She packed 5 muffins into a big box and 3muffins into a small box. How many big boxes of muffins did she get? 🙏🙏

[@inspiredLearning]

Each big box has 5 muffins and each small box has 3 muffins. so 5 times the number of big boxes plus 3 times the number of small boxes will give the total number of muffins which is 174. similarly the number of big boxes plus the number of small boxes is equal to 40. So if x represents the number of big boxes and y represents the number of small boxes, we can have two equations. 5x + 3y = 174 and x + y = 40. On solving these equations we can find the value of x which is the number of big boxes. Hope this helps. If you do need a video, do reply and I will try to do one asap. Thank you.

U mean the outro

[@hiramustafa358]

Very useful .but still finding difficult to solve james and Kevin's one.can you please kindly explain more comprehensively

[@inspiredLearning]

Are you familiar with model math? If not solving with algebra might be useful for you. Let me know how i can help?

[@Err395]

Hi teacher, thank u for the video. I am confused on how did the 90 turned 3 units. However, the video is good

[@inspiredLearning]

90 is the number of men leaving the room. After that the number of women became double the number of men left in the room. So, right now, the women have not changed, and the same unit now becomes two units. Apply this to the rest of the diagram. Hope this helps :)

Can u pls share this" the total cost of air ticket to europe for 2 adult and 4 children was 4940. What was the cost of an adult ticket"

[@inspiredLearning]

Hi, This question does not have enough information to solve. (for e.g., each child ticket costs 40% of an adult ticket or something like this)

@@inspiredLearningThat's AMAZING! Will do! I have begun to tutor in adult literacy. My main focus is teaching people to read & write. I'm weak in math but it doesn't take much math for American G.E.D. so even a little and I can help them more.

Only this question make me confuse than other questions

Yup you can say that again😑

[@ianloh2647]

This question is flawed as it does not say that Kevin lost his marbles TO James hence it has to be inferred. Have fun bringing up confused kids, Singapore ;)

[@ridditdit2686]

but he didnt

[@ThiHaGadgets]

Agreed but i find it the explanation is very helpful.

[@margaritomiral5671]

@@ThiHaGadgets Agree, had Kevin lost 10 marbles to James, the answer is incorrect.
