Game: CAT AND MOUSE
Aim: Catch the white mice
Method:
Move the cat with the arrow keys or by tapping in the game area to catch the white mouse. Avoid the red balloons but hit the blue balloons.
Your final score is based on all of that plus number of questions answered right, and the time taken.
5th grade / Add + Subtract / Checking answers / Check subtractions using inverse operations
In this topic you are asked to select the correct inverse operation to use to check the given subtraction sum.
Inverse operations are pairs of operations that "undo" each other. For example, addition and subtraction are inverse operations, as are multiplication and division. To use inverse operations to check subtractions, you can perform the opposite operation to the subtraction, which should result in the original number you started with.
Let's say you have answered the subtraction problem: 25 - 7 and decided the answer is 18.
To check this problem using inverse operations, you can perform the opposite operation to subtraction, which is addition. So, you can add 7 to the answer 18 to get back to the original number:
25 - 7 = 18
18 + 7 = 25
If the answer you get from adding the two numbers is the same as the number you started with (in this case, 25), then you know that your original subtraction problem was correct.
A more complex subtraction might be 72 - 45
To check this problem using inverse operations, you can perform the inverse operation, addition. So, you can add 45 to your answer to get back to the original number:
72 - 45 = 27
27 + 45 = 72
In each question you are given a subtraction equation. You are asked to choose the inverse equation that will confirm the subtraction is correct.
With our Cat and mouse math game you will be practicing the topic "Check subtractions using inverse operations" from 5th grade / Add + Subtract / Checking answers. The math in this game consists of 16 questions that ask you to choose the inverse operations that check these subtractions.
Cat versus mouse game with added balloons for math and fun. You are the ginger cat, and your life is being made a misery by some white mice which have come into the house and are proving hard to catch. Not to mention there is a mouse house party going on and lots of balloons getting in the way of your hunting.
So you have to catch the white mice, forget about the gray mice, hit the blue balloons but avoid the red balloons, and answer math questions (you are a CLEVER cat...). If it sounds complicated and a bit frantic, that's because it is. Do your best but don't worry if you can't catch all the mice - neither can we. It's a cat's life...
