Summer Learning Journey, Week 1, Day 2, Activity 3: Weird and Wonderful.

Weird and Wonderful:

Let’s imagine that you are given a cactus for your birthday. To keep it alive, you must give it 3 ml of water every day.
Over one full year, how much water will you need to give your cactus plant?

This one took me a while or it made me think hard until I had the idea of thinking about how many days in a year and multiply it by 3 millilitres. And the answer I got was

1095 mL.

Final Answer = 1095 ml.

  1. Hi Sierra!

    It's great to see that you were able to solve the cactus maths problem correctly. Knowing how many days in a year helps! What strategy did you use to help you answer it? I have four cacti in my bedroom at home; I hope I'm giving them enough water!

    Well done on completing another activity, Sierra. I'm looking forward to reading more from you soon :)
