This is what I had to do On your blog, tell us how you will solve this maths problem. You can write your answer in words, use a Sketchpad image or post a video explaining how you would figure it out. Be sure to give us your final answer. .
This is what I had to Work out Let’s imagine that the average adult can lift 25 kg and the average child can lift 15 kg. How many adults and children will it take to move the giant squid into its new room at Te Papa?
Working out:
The squid weighs 500 kg what I need to figure out How many children and adult will take to move the 500 kg squid.
25kg x 10kg = 250kg
15kg x 10kg = 150kg
250kg + 150kg = 400kg
25kg x 2kg = 100kg
400kg + 100kg = 500kg
12 + 10 = 22
So to carry the squid you will need 12 Adults and 10 children.
