Week beginning November 5th – Foundation to Year 2
Biscuit Decoration
Andrew decorated 20 biscuits to take to a party.
He lined them up and put icing on every second biscuit.
Then he put a cherry on every third biscuit.
Then he put a chocolate button on every fourth biscuit.
So there was nothing on the first biscuit.
How many other biscuits had no decoration? Did any biscuits get all three decorations?
There are 7 biscuits with nothing on. These are number 1, 5, 7, 11, 13, 17 and 19. Number 12 got all of the decorations.
