Badge-guide quantitiesYear 2 Maths · T2 W13–14 · Routes / D66 r3

Useful job

Make a useful quantity guide. Keep the whole quantity and the value of each digit clear.

Whole supplied source

Fictional quantity card set: Badge-guide quantities. First card states 108 labels; second card states 180 labels; third card states 810 labels. These are stated counts of the same kind of label, not observed stocks, money, distances or prices. The task is to represent, compare or order these stated quantities and give a checking reason.

Try it your way

1. Receive a first idea with no supplied solution.
2. Represent the stated quantities, then compare/order or rename exactly as the source requests. Explain what each place and result counts.
3. Try the idea on the same complete paper source; an agreeing helper moves or scribes exactly as directed.
4. Keep one useful guide and one checking sentence. A proposed reader test stays proposed.

Another try

Choose a different representation of the same given whole or a clearly stated new quantity. Recalculate/reorder instead of carrying an earlier answer.
