Maths

Today for maths I worked with my two friends ( Alo and Aja ) to work out some of our questions that we hadn't finished.  One of the questions that we helped each other to work out was " Paul has five different ways to get to school from his house. The length of each way is different the length of all the ways to school are 0.6 , 1.2, 0.9,
1.3, 0.3, 0.6 and 0.7 " .

The first thing that we did was plus 0.6 and 0.9 we decided to start with these two numbers randomly. 0.6 + 0.9 = 1.5 + 1.2 = 2.7 + 0.6 = 3.3 + 1.3 = 4.6 + 0.3 = 4.9 + 0.7 = 5.6 . This is how we solved " how far does paul travel within a week. We choose to answer the question like this because it was the easiest way for us to understand the problem and the easiest way for us to answer the question / problem. Something that I think we should do next time try and see how many different ways we can get the same answer just to try and double check that we got the right answer.
