MUST-KNOW PSLE MATH PROBLEM 2

Do you know WHEN and HOW to use the Row-Minus-Row Method? This method is used when the question involves several relationships between multiple items and for each relationship a Total is given.

———————————————————————————————————–

Question:

Kyle bought 6 similar pencils, 3 similar books and a file for $78.

1 pencil and 1 book cost $20.

1 pencil and 1 file cost $12.

What was the cost of the file?

———————————————————————————————————–

Solution using the Row-Minus-Row Method:

Given 6p + 3b + 1f = 78  ———–Row 1

Given 1p + 1b = 20

So 3p + 3b = 60  ———– Row 2

Row 1 – Row 2:  3p + 1f  = 18  ———— Row 3

Given 1p + 1f = 12

So 3p + 3f = 36  ————- Row 4

Row 4 – Row 3:   2f = 18, so f = 9.

Ans:  $9

MUST-KNOW PSLE MATH PROBLEM 1

PSLE MATH WORKSHOP FOR PARENTS & STUDENTS – How to solve difficult problem sums using the Storyline-Balance Method

PSLE MATH JUNE HOLIDAY INTENSIVE REVISION

PSLE SCIENCE JUNE HOLIDAY INTENSIVE REVISION

———————————————————————————————————–

Question:

The ratio of Eric’s money to Kim’s money was 3 : 1. After Eric gave Kim $60, the ratio of Eric’s money to Kim’s money became 3 : 5. How much did Eric have at first?

———————————————————————————————————–

Solution using the Storyline-Balance Method:

E         :        K

At start:         3u       :        1u

Story:             – 60             + 60

At end:         3u – 60        1u + 60

Final ratio:      3       :       5

So 5 sets of (3u – 60) = 3 sets of (1u + 60)

15u – 300 = 3u + 180

15u – 3u = 180 + 300

12u = 480

1u = $40

So at first Eric had 3u = 3 x 40 = $120

Ans:  $120

Note:

The above is just one method. Another method requires you to notice that in the above problem, the total number of units remain the same as it is an INTERNAL TRANSFER or TOTAL UNCHANGED situation or concept. However, using the Storyline-Balance method, you don’t need to know what has been unchanged.

Re-taking A-levels

If you have read my posts (1) What to do if your A-level results are bad … and (2) A-Level Results: What to do if you get BAD or DEAD, i.e., the ‘middle class’, and you would like to re-take your A-Levels, then I suggest you don’t waste any more time as the next A-Levels is very near already, just a few months down the road.

Retaking A-Levels is not easy, depending on whether you are a full-time student, working, or doing NS.

The ideal situation is when you can choose to become a full-time student, as retaking A-Levels needs a high degree of commitment. If you wish to become our full-time student, then you can click on the following for details: A-LEVEL PREPARATION

alevelprepbutton

If you are working part-time or full-time or doing NS, and you are serious about retaking your A-levels, then you’d need to meet up with me to work out a suitable arrangement.

Rgds,

Ilyasa (hp: 97860411)
