A hamburger shop jus opened and offered 2 different kinds of buns and 5 different toppings. How many different burgers can you make using 1 type of bun and 1 topping?
- My daughter just needs to know what to do with it
And another one :
Jasmin is planting a garden in her backyard. The garden is fourteen ft long. She wants to plant one row of beans the entire length of her garden. She wants to plant a seed at each end of the row every 2 feet along it. How many seeds will she need?How do you figure out this math question?
you multiply:
2x5=10
so the answer is 10 different type of burger combinations
or you can do a factor tree
key:
B= buns
Topping1 Topping2 Topping3 Topping4 Topping5
/ \ / \ / \ / \ / \
B1 B2 B1 B2 B1 B2 B1 B2 B1 B2
Therefore
Topping 1 with Bun 1
Topping 1 with Bun 2
Topping 2 with Bun 1
Topping 2 with Bun 2
Topping 3 with Bun 1
Topping 3 with Bun 2
Topping 4 with Bun 1
Topping 4 with Bun 2
Topping 5 with Bun 1
Topping 5 with Bun 2
You've got 2 buns and 5 toppings.
If you only had one bun and 5 toppings, you could make 5 different burgers, right?
But you've got 2 buns, so you make double that(by changing the bun)
So you've got 2*5 = 10
Same kind of idea for the second one
14 divided by 2 = 7How do you figure out this math question?
With the first bun, and 5 different toppings, = 5 varieties
With the 2nd bun, and 5 different toppings, = 5 varieties
Total varieties=10
Note 2 buns X 5 varieties = 10
She needs 8 seeds.
She needs a seed every 2 feet, so 2 X 7=14
AND, one to start the row
Total= 8
Did she get that from the Glencoe Mathematics Grade 6 Mathematics Review book?
