Probability

 In Te Maunga I have learnt about probability. I learnt that for some activities they weren’t as easy as I thought. Like in one of the activities you had to pick two cards and try to get a card that had a number on it that was in between the two numbers of the cards that you took. The chances of getting the card in the middle was pretty hard. For example  pretend that you pulled out a seven and four you would have to get a 5 or 6. The chance would be 8 out of 38 because there are 38 cards with numbers and you have two numbers that are in between so the chance would be 8 out of 38.

Maths week

A few weeks ago at school we had a Maths Week. In Maths Week the whole school had to go over to one of my teacher’s cars. We had to go to their car and it had balloons in it and we had to guess how many balloons there were. Once the whole school guessed we had to wait till Friday to get the answer. When it was Friday we got told how many balloons there were and only 3 people got the answer right. The answer was 116 I didn’t get it right I wrote 71.
