19 stars: Five of Emma’s fireworks made 3 stars and one made 4 stars. Another answer is one firework made 3 stars and four made 4 stars.
25 stars: Three of Emma’s fireworks made 3 stars and four made 4 stars. Another answer is seven made 3 stars and one made 4 stars.
For the 19 stars
A: 4 x 4= 16
1 x 3= 3
B: 5 x 3= 15
1 x 4= 4
For the 25 stars
A: 7 x 3= 21
1 x 4= 4
B: 4 x 4= 16
3 x 3= 9
1. for 3s it is 6
2. for 4s it is 4
3. for 25 it is 7 x 3 stars and 1 x 4 stars
4. for 25 it is 4 x 4=16 and 3 x 3 = 9 = 25
This is really hard.
19 Stars first answer – 1 made 3 stars, second answer – 5 made 3 stars.
25 stars first answer- 3 made three stars, second answer – 7 made three stars.
We think
5×3 stars and 1x4stars =15+4=19
4×4 stars and 1x3stars=16+3=19
3+3+3+3+3+4 = 19
4+4+4+4+3 = 19
3×3 +4×4 = 25
7×3 + 4 = 25
19-4=15. 15:3=5 there are 5 rockets with 3 stars and one rocket with 4 stars.
Wow you HAVE all been thinking hard. I can’t wait to find out the right answer!
