Where shall I go to to get the biggest share?


The children had to think about where they wanted to go to get the biggest share of chocolate.  They went up one at a time and sat in front of which chair they wanted to share.  
This was half way through the class - Jayden gets one whole chocolate bar, Seth's line has to share 2 bars between 4 and Sophie's line has to share 3 bars between 6.


Where would you go??
At the end!!

Jayden's line has to share one chocolate bar between 5.  They got 1 whole piece and 2/5ths of a piece each.
Seth's line has to share two chocolate bars between 7.  They got 2 whole pieces each.
Sophie's line had to share 3 chocolate bars between 10.  They got 2 whole pieces and 1/10 of a piece.


IF YOU HAD TO JOIN A LINE, WHERE WOULD YOU GO?

  1. That's an interesting problem Room 3. I would go in the line that had the least children compared to how many chocolate bars there were.
