1. You are working in a packing store, where apples are packed. You are asked to count the number of apples that are packed in an hour. Give a detailed account of the following:
a. Where would you start?
At place where apples enter the packaging.
b. If you were told to estimate the number of apples packed in the hour, how would you go about it?
Multiply the amount of boxes packed in an hour with the average amount of apples per box.
c. If you were told to count the exact number of apples packed in an hour, how would you go about it?
Physically count each apple in each box & count each box packed in the hour.
d. If you asked the driver of the tractor and he told you that he arrived every hour with a load of 10 picking baskets that could always fit approximately 100 apples each, how would it make your estimate easier?
You’d be able to estimate that in an hour 10x100apples are packed (1000 apples).
e. If you know that there are 50 apples packed in a box, ready for distribution, and at the end of an hour you find that 70 boxes have been filled, how would that make you accurate calculation task easier?
70 boxes x 50 apples = 3500 apples packed in that hour.

Problem solving with +/- [answers]
Question 1
Step 1 Read the problem
You arrive at the bus stop at 10.30am. Your bus is due at 10.45am. How many minutes will you have to wait?
Step 2 Organize the calculation
The number of minutes from 10.30 to 10.45. You could count on from 10.30.
Step 3 Answer the calculation
10.30 to 10.40 is 10 minutes 10.40 to 10.45 is another 5 minutes 10 + 5 = 15 minutes
Step 4 Answer the problem
You will have to wait for 15 minutes
Question 2
Step 1 Read the problem
Your puppy needs to have its inoculations before it can go out for a walk. If the puppy is 8 weeks old when it has its first inoculation, you have to wait 6 weeks for its booster and another 4 weeks for the booster to take effect. How old will the puppy be when it can go out?
Step 2 Organize the calculation
I will start from the puppy’s age and add on all the weeks that it needs to stay in.
Step 3 Answer the calculation
8 weeks old + 6 weeks + 4 weeks = 18
Step 4 Answer the problem
The puppy will be 18 weeks old.
