Class survey 1 Solution

The Ministry is migrating nzmaths content to Tāhurangi.           
Relevant and up-to-date teaching resources are being moved to Tāhūrangi (tahurangi.education.govt.nz). 
When all identified resources have been successfully moved, this website will close. We expect this to be in June 2024. 
e-ako maths, e-ako Pāngarau, and e-ako PLD 360 will continue to be available.

Chris has done a class survey.

There are 25 students in his class. 5 have blonde hair, 16 have dark hair and the rest have red hair.

How many students have red hair? 

Solution:

16 + 5 = 21, so there are 21 students with either blonde or dark hair.

The rest have red hair. 25 – 21 = 4 so 4 students have red hair.
