DMIC Problem 2,Week 2.



Today we worked in our DMIC groups to solve this problem.When you find a fraction of a number, the first thing you need to do is to divide the number by the denominator.
First we worked out the 105 divided by 7 was 15.Most of us drew 7 circles, we counted in 10s 7 times and then in 5s and that made 105, which answer left 15 in each group.

The next step is to take the number 15, and times it by the numerator, which is 4.
15 x 4 = 60.

The answer is 60.

60 mussels could be taken by the fisherman - 4/7 of 105 is 60 mussels .
