Huia saw her Grandma six days ago. If today is the 3rd of November, on what date did she see her Grandma?

Solution:

You need to find the date six days before the 3rd of November.

Three days before the 3rd of November would have been the last day of October.

October has 31 days so October 31 was three days ago.

Three days before October 31 is October 28th. Huia saw her Grandma on October 28.
