This week in maths I learnt how to write three ways of a ratio.
For example:
6:7,6 to 7 and 6/7.....
I learnt how to use two strategies to solve ratio.
Number 1:
2:1 : 10:?
I look at the relationship between 2 and 1. I know that if I divide 2 into 2 groups I get 1. After that I look at 10 and see if I divide 10 into 2 groups I get 2 groups of 5. So it will be 2:1 : 10:5.
Number 2
5:1 : 40:?
Like the first one but instead of looking at the relationship between 5:1 I look at the relationship between 5 and 40. I know that 5x8=40 so I do 1x8=8 and that is my answer. 5:1 : 40:8.
I am a Year 8 student at St Pius X School in Auckland, NZ. I am in Room 7 and my teacher is Mrs Tui.

Week 5 Maths Reflection
This week for maths I learnt how to do 10 and........ like doing 50+16=66. This is how I did it.I did 50+10=60Then 60+6=66that is how I got my answer 66.I learnt how to use multiplication to solve addition and subtraction problems where common factors can be found...... like for example....e.g. 24 + 27 + 22 + 28 = 4 × 25 20 + 5 x 420 20 20 20 = 4 x 20 = 805 5 5 5 = 4 x 5 = 2080 + 20 = 100 + 1=101.

maths reflection
What I learnt in maths was how to do measure objects using mm,cm,m and km. I know that because If I need to measure a pencil I need to use mm to measure it. I also know that
10mm=1cm
100cm=1m
1000m=1km

10mm=1cm
100cm=1m
1000m=1km
