Game: UXO
Aim: Knock out the targets, avoid the bombs
Method:
Click or tap and hold to destroy the objects while avoiding the bombs. When you knock out all 10 targets, you must answer the question to continue to the next level. There is a time limit of 30 seconds to get all 10 targets or you lose 50 points.
Scoring is :
Hit target : +10
Hit bomb : -5
Right answer : +50
Wrong answers : -20
5th grade / Add + Subtract / Checking answers / Check additions using inverse operations
In this topic you are asked to select the correct inverse operation to use to check the given addition 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 addition sums, you can perform the opposite operation to the addition, which should result in the original number you started with.
Let's say you have the addition problem: 25 + 7 and your answer is 32.
To check this problem using inverse operations, you can perform the opposite operation to addition, which is subtraction. So, you can subtract 7 from the answer to get back to the original number:
25 + 7 = 32
32 - 7 = 25
If the answer you get from subtracting the two numbers is the same as the number you started with (in this case, 25), then you know that your original addition problem was correct.
You can use inverse operations to check more complex addition problems. For example:
96 + 14 = 110
110 - 14 = 96
In each question you are given an addition equation. You are asked to choose from a selection of 3 equations the inverse equation that will confirm the addition is correct.
With our UXO math game you will be practicing the topic "Check additions 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 correctly check these additions.
UXO is a fun game to learn math where you attempt to knock over all the target objects while avoiding clicking / tapping on the bombs.
After each level, win an additional 50 points by correctly answering a math question from your selected topic. Wrong answers lose you 20 points but you can answer multiple times. Each level lasts 30 seconds: if you haven't cleared all the targets in that time, you lose 50 points. High scores can be added to the UXO leaderboards.
