Weekly Maths Problem

Don’t forget to write out the problem at the top of the page, date the work and show all your workings out (even the wrong answers) and then file the evidence in your folder!

I am making this week’s question very personal. How much would it cost to paint your bedroom?

This is a multi-step question.

• Step 1 You have to work out the area of your walls.

• Step 2 Work out how much how much area a litre tin of paint covers.

• Step 3 - How much paint you need and the total cost of the amount of paint.

You may choose whatever colour of paint you would like!

You can share your answers here in the forum on the website or with me as I visit during the week. Remember you need to show your workings out to get the maximum points.
