Bob and Sam are playing Starcraft. Bob has five groups of zerglings while Sam has two groups of zerglings. The number of zerglings in each of Sam’s groups are the difference of one and the number of zerglings in each of Bob's groups. The sum of Bob and Sam’s total number of zerglings is eight less than the number of zerglings in each of Bob’s groups. How many zerglings does Bob have in each of his groups?
Its creative because you used Starcraft as an example, but Mr. Jobe might not know what it is, so you should change it. Also, I know what you're trying to say in the problem, but it was pretty hard to understand, so you should make it more easy to understand.
The deli has made two new treats that are sold in packets - cupcakes and pretzels. However, the packets are not see-through and the cafeteria has placed a challenge on the students to figure out how many treats are inside each packet. On the first day of their sale, there are five packets of cupcakes and two packets of pretzels on display. The number of pretzels in a packet is the difference of one and the number of cupcakes in a packet. If the sum of the total number of treats on sale that day is eight more than the number of cupcakes in a packet, how many cupcakes are in one packet? (*hint: use a chart!)s

ReplyDelete1. The information is very confusing.->Try to make the information more organized.
ReplyDelete2. It may viewed as creative, but it may be easier for the person solving the problem with a familiar situation.
1. Using Zerglings and Starcraft as an example is very unique and creative.
ReplyDelete2. However, the word problem was too complex or too confusing.
