Question

Describe how you labled the bar model and wrote a number sentence to solve exercise 2

Answer 1

I knew there were 14 bees in one and 17 in the garden there and together that equals 31. I wrote it out to show that I added the two to get 31 bees in all

Answer 2

31

Explanation:

In the above problem it is given that

No of Bees in the hive = 14

Number of bees in the garden = 17

In order to solve it

First of all I wrote 14 in the first box which represents the number of bees in the hive.

Secondly, I wrote 17 in the second box which represents the number of bees in the garden.

Now, in order to calculate the total number of bees i added the number in both boxes

Total Number of bees = 14 + 17

Total Number of bees = 31

So our total number of bees are 31
