Math Is Fun Forum

Yum! I just celebrated at home with my family, watching the telly. We were planning to go out and watch the fireworks in the city, but since we had just got off an eight hour flight earlier in the day, we were a bit tired. I managed to stay awake until midnight though (my eyelids had a mind of their own).

We have five players at the moment, so I'll wait a few more days.

Okay, I've taken a look, and had a bit of a play around, and things seem great!

Now for a long question/suggesting asking session:

Will all worksheets have the same style/format or just however we want to make them?

Could there be a way to be able to select more than one subject for the worksheet, e.g. addition and patterns; division, ordering and multiplication?

Maybe instead of selecting one year level, we could select a range. Kinder; 1-3; 4-6 etc.

What is 'country'? Does that mean where the creator lives, or the country which the sheet is aimed for...?

This is a kind of stupid question, but does there need to leave a line to write the answer/s on? (If printing out or for younger children.)

One last thing - sometimes when you press print preview, sheets get a bit distorted because the person has made the content of the page too wide. Are these sheets made for printing or for looking at on the screen? I think they need to be printer friendly.

Nice! Well, when I first came to the forum, I thought I would be 'just looking for the moment' - as in, I wasn't sure if I would stay at the forum - and just have a browse . Now, I'm still here (and I am glad I am!), so my name doesn't really fit any more!

Okay. So there's an even number of white hats. And according to all the infomation given...

III: white.

Hope I understood and didn't muck it up!

No, no levels! At least, I think it's still the same.

Hey! Haven't I seen that before somewhere? Good job, Rod!

Did you look at any of the other games?

This is interesting. I doubt any of these are right, but maybe some kind of spiffy watch. Or unplugged laptop running on a battery. What about the clock in your car? I can't see how that would change for daylight saving, though. A sun/water clock? I'm going to keep thinking about this one.

I thought that would be letting the team down!! Do you mind, krassi?

A picky question: does this mean we'll all be free (all 10 people), or the just the people who guessed correctly (not the person who got it wrong)?

These optical illusions are great!

I see what you mean about temperature. It's kind of like saying 'I'm three times as short as you'. How can you be twice as short? It makes more sense when you say 'I'm a third as tall'.

I spent a long time playing with many more puzzling ones here:

You were on the right track, but instead of dividing, you should multiply.

-4 x 5 = -20°C

So, the coldest day was -20°C. Brr!
