Mythical Math

WALT: answer maths equations and post them on your blog
today I am answering maths equations again, I like how equations doesn't require a lot of writing number's and complicated sentences, my equation was 59+49=108 I worked out what 40+50 is than rounded 49 to 50 and then added it to the big number 99 than that makes 100 than added the remaining 8 to 100 which makes 108. Is there another way to work it out? image from popular mechanics.

  1. Hi Emily. I like seeing how you think when you described your working. This is a good strategy when the numbers are close to something easy to work with. I can't think of a better way but I can think of others. I think your way would be quicker than a calculator.
