Problem solving revision: Week 1

We were practicing our problem solving today. The question we had to solve was 'Sajiha read a book with 6003 words in it in 4 weeks. In the first week she read 653 words. In the second week she read 497 words and in the third week she read 1183 words. How many more words did she read in week 4?'. To solve this I subtracted 653, 497, 1183 from 6003. With a lot of thinking and subtracting, I found out the answer was 3670.

Great to see you thinking about the strategy that you feel confident with Dontalian. Remember to look at the numbers and think carefully about what the words are asking you to do with those numbers.
