Today we were inspired to create our own problems about the colour run:
Renee's Problem:
If 500 people were at the run and 134 people received spot prizes, How many people missed out?
Renee split the 134 into 100 and 34.
Then went 500 - 100 = 400
400 - 34 = ? 400 - 30 = 370
370 - 4 = 366.
Renee could split the numbers and work out the answer was 366 people missed out. In our group two people won spot prizes.
Kind Regards,
Kim
