'Best price - divide by 9' for 5th grade
5th grade / Multiply + Divide / Best Price / Best price - divide by 9
With our Mix and match math game you will be practicing the topic "Best price - divide by 9" from 5th grade / Multiply + Divide / Best Price. The math in this game consists of 14 questions that ask you to use division by 9 to work out the saving made by purchasing a packet of 9 rather than individual items.
Word problems: best price per item
Learn how to work out saving per item by buying a packet or box rather than individual items
In these math topics, we explore division by working out what the price per item is if you buy a whole pack or other group container like a box or a book (of stamps). Often retailers will price a group of items in a box or packet at less per item in order to sell a greater quantity of items.
For instance, buying individual marbles might cost 10 ¢ each, but buying a packet of 10 marbles might cost say 80 ¢. In this case, you can probably see immediately that the pack price is "better" than the individual price, but how can we work out what the acutal saving is? There are 2 simple ways to work out the saving: either multiplying the individual item price by the number of items sold in the packet, or dividing the packet price by the number of items in the packet. If we do the latter we find that the price of each marble in the packet is
80 ¢ ÷ 10 = 8 ¢
Which compares to 10 ¢ if we buy the marbles individually. So in this case the saving ** per item ** (which is what these topics are about) is:
10 ¢ - 8 ¢ = 2 ¢
Next time you are in a shop where you can choose to buy a packet or individual items, see if you can figure out what the saving is... it could save you a packet!
In this game we are in a room with lots of toys - and the room needs clearing up - you need to put the play blocks back in the right boxes to tidy the room and win the game...but which is the right box for each block? Well, you can work that out by comparing the question on the block with the math answer on each of the boxes - you should drag the question block into the box whose math answer matches the picture question.
You can listen to the spoken math answer by clicking on the individual boxes. There are 5 blocks to clear up - but if you put them in the wrong boxes, there will be more... Anyway, tidy is good and practicing math is better so start now and see how you get on...
This game reinforces the math you learned or revised in the lesson by asking you to match each question to the correct answer. If you are older you may not like the childish reference to toys, but don't worry - there are other games to play, and who knows - you might like a trip down memory lane?
