Chocolate Maths

WALT/LI- WE ARE LEARNING TO find fractions of whole and fixed numbers

Today we are participating in a real life problem. Our group will need to work out how to find the fraction of whole and mixed numbers in order to keep everyone happy...

Yesterday we were left with 6 chocolate bars split between 13 children. How much chocolate would each child now receive?
The fraction for this is 6/13 but they each get 6 chocolate each.


Miss stone doesn’t feel like chocolate today. How much chocolate would each child receive if their are seven chocolate bars. There were supposed to be 14 children in our group, how much chocolate would each child receive if there were 7 chocolate bars.
Each child receives 2 chocolate each because 7 x 2 = 14 and half 14 is 7
