Today, during maths, Mrs Naicker's maths group worked with decimals to solve word problems. During this time, I worked with AJ. We had to use our addition and subtraction skills to solve word problems that were in decimals. They were very hard but we eventually got most of them done. For a warm up, we did a thirty question basic facts test ton see how good we were. I got thirty out of thirty. They were really easy. After that the group had a competition to see who could win in a maths game called hit the button. On hit the button there are several subject, this time we did division. I did alright but I wasn't the best. The decimal word problems were high numbers like 672.80 + 180.76, though we managed to solve them.
I am a Year 8 student at Panmure Bridge School in Auckland, NZ. I am in Learning Space 2 and my teachers are Mrs Anderson, and Ms Kirkpatrick.

Solving Decimal Word Problems 3
For maths I had to answer three decimal problems and make a DLO about solving one of them. The problem was that the cashier gave Paige and Melissa the wrong amount of change, the cashier was supposed to give her $10.40 instead of $1.40.
