3 squares
Number of squares | 1 | 2 | 3 | 4 | 5 | 6 | 7 | 8 |
Number of ribbons | 4 | | | | | | | |
Fill out the table below with how many pieces of ribbon is required for each of the number of squares below. Hint: One square requires 4 pieces of ribbon so that means 2 squares will require 8.
Copy and paste your table from slide 3 here:
Describe the pattern for the number of ribbons here:
How many ribbons would you need for 15 squares? Show your working here:
Mr Hughes made squares out of sticks to make paddocks for his toy farm. He put three animals in each paddock.
Number of paddocks | 1 | 2 | 3 | 4 | 5 |
Number of sticks | 4 | | | | |
Number of animals | 3 | | | | |
Fill out the table below to show how many sticks will be needed for each paddock and then how many animals in total can fit into the paddocks.. Hint: One paddock needs 4 sticks and can hold 3 animals in total, two paddocks need 8 sticks and can hold 6 animals in total.
Copy and paste your table from slide 5 here:
How many sticks will he need to make 10 paddocks? Show your working here:
How many animals will there be altogether in the 10 paddocks? Show your working here:
Mr Hughes decided he could use fewer sticks by making the paddocks like this.
Number of paddocks | 1 | 2 | 3 | 4 | 5 |
Number of sticks | 4 | | | | |
Fill out the table below to show how many sticks he will need for each extra paddock
How many sticks will Mr Hughes need to make 10 paddocks now? Copy and paste the squares below to show what this would look like.
