haha.....smart sehOriginally posted by Kuali Baba:1050/7 + 50 = 200
a + b + j = $1050Originally posted by technoboy:ali, ben and jialu have $1050 altogether
ali and ben have an equal amount of money
if both give jialu $50 each
jialu will have 5 times as much money as each of them
how much does ben and jialu have at 1st?
Anyone can solve them?? I cant get the ans... Lol...
chiobu FI so good in math.Originally posted by FireIce:a + b + j = $1050
a = b
=> a + a + j = $1050
2a + j = $1050
j = $1050 - 2a
j + $50 + $50 = 5(a - $50)
j + $100 = 5a - $250
j = 5a - $350
$1050 - 2a = 5a - $350
7a = $1400
a = $200b = $200
j = $650
yeah, but if algebra was taught in pri sch, i think EM3 students will have alot of problems..Originally posted by FireIce:drawing model is a bad way to teach maths.......
i dunno why they teach that in pri sch....and intro algebra oni much later......
Like models is going to help them in the future...Originally posted by FadeToBlack:yeah, but if algebra was taught in pri sch, i think EM3 students will have alot of problems..
Originally posted by ditzy:I'm stumped.
The p5 way is to draw model.
The ideal way is everyone is happy with equal amounts.
The realistic way is no idiot would give money to another so he can equal another.![]()
me too !!!Originally posted by nismoS132:i learnt algebra in pri 3-4 way way before everyone else.
coz that time i lazy always dun wanna do my work, then my father do for me, then from there i learnt algebra![]()

Man... your dad is destroying you... But... what did you say to him to get him to complete your work?Originally posted by bismarck:me too !!!
i frequently get "Good" remarks..but is all my dad do 1..copied wholesale without know wht the hell was going on..slowly realised algebra frm there![]()
Oh you are a teacher?? No wonder can explain the solution so well... HeheOriginally posted by starblue:yah.. sometimes when i teach primary school maths, i forgot how to teach them using models, then teach them the algebra method. then they look so blur, then i will realise i taught them something they don't know. lolz...![]()
