Today in maths we have to do another problem solve question because we finished last weeks one. The weeks one is about time. We have to write a paragraph about how we found out the answer. Here is the paragraph and a photo of the question. I and Alexia worked together on the problem, we decided it would be the best thing to figure out how many days were in May, may has 31 days in it, but since she set it on the last day of April it would count as one more day on 31, which means we have 32 days. We then worked our 32x11 and we got 352, this was useless but we still did it anyway. I worked out that over 7 days she will lose 1 minute and 17 seconds. We also decided that it would be better to find out how many weeks were in May and there are 4 weeks. We then did 7x4 and worked it out which is 28. We then figured out the time which we found out it was 5 minutes and 8 seconds. The ending time will be 12:54:52.
