Part To The Max



Party To The Max


1. Special price:
4-six packs of Fruity Fun Cartons for $20.


Max and his mother are at the supermarket. They are buying food and drinks for Max’s birthday party.


Bargain!
25 cartons of fruit nectars for $20


Both specials are $20. Which one should I cho ose to the most Cartons.?


You should get the 25 cartons of fruit nectars for $20 because the 25 cartons of fruit nectars is one more than the 4-six pack.


2. Apples: $2.00 a kilo.


I think there are 5 apples in a kilo. How many apples might we get for $8.00.?


You would get 20 apples for $20.00 because $4.00 equals 10 apples so double the amount of apples you will get 20 apples for $8.00.


3.Frozen Yoghurt. $3.00 a tub


How many tubs of frozen yoghurt can I buy for $12


4 tubs for $12 because 12 divide 3 = 4


4.$4 for a pack of party blowers 10 blowers in every pack


We need 15 blowers. How many packs will we need to buy?


You need only 2 pack because there are 15 people coming and there are 10 blowers in each pack so if they buy two pack they will have 20 blowers altogether and they will have 5 leftover when they give everybody one each.


5.$3 for a pack of 5 metallic balloons.


15 metallic balloons will give us 1 each. How many pack is that?


30 because Max has decided to give them 2 balloons each so you double it and Max will need to buy 6 packs to give 2 balloons to each person. So that will cost him $18 dollars altogether.




Activity 2.


Max’s mother has already made 5 fruit kebabs for his party. Max is making another 10.



How many pieces of watermelon will Max use for his 10 kababs.?


You will need 20 watermelons to fit on 10 kebabs so 2 on each kebab.


How many pieces of fruit will he use all together.?


He will use 70 because 7 times 10 equals 70 and on each kebab stick there are 7 pieces of fruit.


Max washes 28 grapes. is that enough for 10 kebabs.?


No because if you have 3 grapes on each of the 10 kebabs you will need 30 grapes to fit so Max is 2 grapes short.
