Answer 1

I'm here, what's the question?

Answer 2

k let me get it

Answer 3

Which one do you think it is?

Answer 4

A

Answer 5

And why do you think it's A?

Answer 6

it look right

Answer 7

But we're looking for the one that DOESN'T solve the problem. A solves it, so our answer isn't A.

Answer 8

ohh so C

Answer 9

Nope, C also solves it. A is the same as C, but as a physical representation. If you imagine the top numbers as the cups, and the bottom values as the amount in them, you'll realize that C solves it. So now we have it down to B and D. Which of those do you think it is?

Answer 10

B

Answer 11

Yes, B would be right. B says that is (3*2)+6 but it would really be (3+2)*6. Any questions about our answer?

Answer 13

Which strategy would not correctly solve this story problem?

Ms. Bailey's cat had 10 kittens. There were 5 white kittens, 3 black kittens, and the rest were brown. How many kittens were brown?

A.
Translate into an equation.
5 + 3 + k = 10

B.
Use logical reasoning. There are 10 kittens. Subtract 5 (the number of white kittens) and 3 (the number of black kittens). The remaining kittens are brown.

C.
Draw a diagram. Draw 10 kittens. Cross out 5 of the kittens, then cross out 3 kittens. Circle the remaining kittens.

D.
Work backward. There are 10 kittens. Add 5 for the number of white kittens and another 3 for the number of black kittens. The total is the number of brown kittens.
