Volume!

Today in math we worked a lot on volume and writing out workings out. To start with I leaned the proper way to write the equation out. eg.
V= lxWxh
   =6x8x4
   =192m3  

I also learned that the 3 at the side of the equation shows that it was volume. We worked on easyish questions at the start but by the end I was a bit confused! Thankfully the calculater saved me at the last question we did:
V=l x w x h
=11 x 16 x 1.5
=264m
Once we had that figured out we had to find out how much it could cost if each square meter was worth $4 for the workers. It was $1,056 the cost but Then we had to find 30%! It was very hard but somehow I ended up with the right awncer!
Even though it was hard it was fun and I felt like i learned a lot!

  1. Well done Clara, it's very important you follow the structure shown as when harder problems appear you'll be able to structure your answers into a sequence where you can track errors or what you've missed out. I like the way you explained what you did, perhaps a picture to show viewers? Keep sharing.
