3angel fish and 8 goldfish?
I made a mistake it’s 4 angel fish and 8 goldfish.?
Good morning Miss Healy and Miss Gorick! 🙂
She can buy 6 of each fish with 80p remaining.
she will buy 4 angel fish and 8 goldfish
I was wrong. I checked my answer and my new answer is:
4 angel fish and 8 goldfish.
goldfish: 1
angel fish: 13
I did this by adding 1.80 and 1.40 together. After I got 3.20 I added it and did a bit of trial an error. I finally got the answer by doing 3.20 X 4 and adding 4 more goldfish (1.80) to the equation.
She bought 13 angel fish and 1 goldfish.
She buys 8 goldfish and 4 angel fish ??????????
My Working out
How I worked it out was that I did trial and error I just kept adding £1.40 and I reached £10.80 a number which I was quite satisfied and would test out near the end .It went in 8 times meaning 8 angel fish. this was my first answer prediction.Then I did the same for £1.80 I tried £1.80 times 2 it didn’t reach twenty after adding £10.80 when I tried 4 times £1.80 I got £7.20 I added it to the previous 10.80 and I got 20.00.Meaning that they got 4 angel fish and 8 goldfish.It was very eat for me and quite simple when you put your head to it
8 goldfish and 4 angelfish
12 goldfish and 6 angle fish
If you divide £20 by 2 in two separate columns for the angel and the goldfish;you get £10 in each column. £10 divided by £1.40, you get 7 fish with 20p remaining. £10 divided by £1.80 is 5 with £1 remaining.
In total you will have 7 angel fish and 5 goldfish. And £1.20 remaining isn’t enough for another fish.
Goldfish: 8
Angel fish: 3
1. £1.80 × 8= £14.40
2. £1.40×4= £5.60
3. £14.40+£5.60= £20.00
4 angel fish
8 Gold fish
Goldfish – 8 Cost of them – £14.40
Angelfish – 4 Cost of them – £5.60
Goldfish= 8
Angelfish= 4
Good Day teachers,
8 goldfish and 4 angelfish:
goldfish:
£1.80×8=£14.40
angelfish:
£1.40x£4.00=£5.60
add:
£14.40+£5.60=£20.00
8 gold fish
4 angel fish
