Summer learning journey-Weird and Wonderful

LI: to solve a equation about cactus.
Today for this weeks activity we had to solve an equation about cactus.
This is the problem we had to work out.Let’s imagine that you are given a cactus for your birthday. To keep it alive, you must give it 3 ml of water every day.
Over one full year, how much water will you need to give your cactus plant? The answer is 1095.

  1. Hi Afatia! My name is MIa from Yaldhurst Model School. I like your post because you have added the question and information straight from the site to make sure readers understand fully. Surprisingly, your answer is the same a mine. How did you figure it out? To improve your blog, add some color and remember to show us how you did the equation.

    Awesome work!

  2. Hi there Afatia, thank you for sharing your answer to the problem about the cactus and how much water it would consume over the course of one year.

    Could you please reply to this comment and share how you arrived at your answer. We are really interested to read about the different strategies children are using to solve this difficult equation.

    Well done on getting the answer correct!

    How much water would it consume in 10 years?

    Thanks, Billy.

  3. Hey Afatia!
    I like your blog post about solving the SLJ Math question. How did you know that the answer was 1095? What strategy did you use to get the answer? I think that you need to work on telling your readers how you got the answer, so that they can use your strategy and learn from it.
    Keep the work up!

  4. Malo E Lelei Afatia,

    Well done for completing this task. I am glad to see you getting active and finishing these Summer Learning Journey activities during these summer holidays. Did you enjoy doing this task? Why? Congratulations for getting the answer correct. Nice formula using. I used the same formula as you which was, 3ml each day times 365 days in a year = 1095 ml.

    NICE:)
