Set B - Level 1-2- Logical Arrangements- Homework

Pdf Summary

The Math Kangaroo Class Level 1-2 Homework Lesson 9 focuses on logical reasoning, a crucial skill for solving problems involving arrangements or sequences. Students are guided to carefully read through all given clues, sketch out possible solutions, and be open to adjusting their thinking as new information becomes available. The document provides a series of exercises aimed at practicing these skills.<br /><br />1. The first problem involves height comparisons: Terry is both 3 inches taller than Pam and 4 inches taller than Sally, leading to the conclusion that Pam is 1 inch taller than Sally.<br /><br />2. In a candy distribution problem, Enid has 5 candies, Sara has 3 fewer than Bill, and Bill has twice as many as Enid. Calculating these values shows that together Enid, Sara, and Bill have a combined total of 22 pieces of candy.<br /><br />3. A comparison of tower heights reveals that while the pink tower is taller than the red tower but shorter than the green tower, the silver tower surpasses the green tower. This makes the silver tower the tallest.<br /><br />4. Stan's toys are organized on a shelf where the game is directly above the ball, the ball is higher than the blocks and lower than the car. This results in the puzzle not being able to be placed on shelf 3.<br /><br />5. In a problem about age, Kyle is 3 years older than Ben, making him 6 years younger than Dora; Tom, being 3 years older than Anya, ranks him as the second oldest after Dora, especially since Kyle and Anya are twins.<br /><br />The provided answers help students cross-check their reasoning processes and verify their solutions, reinforcing logical deduction skills fundamental to problem-solving.
