After a few weeks holiday Mathemagician is back! Here is my latest problem.
There are 134 penguins living together. 86 have gone to sea to catch some fish. How many are left looking after the nests?
Don't forget to say how you worked out the answer!

I used a number line to answer the sum.
So the sum is 134-86
134-4=130
130-10=120
120-10=110
110-10=100
100-10=90
90-4=86
so I had 4 tens and two fours then it equals 48.
86 takeaway 52 is 34. 134 takeaway 34 is 100. 100 takeaway 52 is 48.
48 is it.
Excellent work Shivaansh and Leilani. Two different ways of solving the same problem! Come and get your prizes!!!!!!!
Let's see if more people can have a try next time!
