Word problems and strategies

  I learned about word problems and strategies. We had to figure out strategies to solve answers. For example 476-123, you use: written algorithm, number line and place value.

The first question was 84 - 7 we used written algorithm, number line, spitting numbers and counting backwards . We figure the number is 77. 

The second number was 1.5-0.885 we used: written algorithm, number line and place value we figured out the number was 0.615.

The third number was 30 divided by 5. The strategies we used was; number line, multilication and skip counting 5. The answer was 5 because you can use 5x tables and count back in five.

The last question was 24 divided by 4 \ 16 divided by 4. We used: grouping with tens, skip count in 4's, number lines and multilication. The answer was 6 and 4.
