today we worked in our DIMC groups to solve this problem . when you find a fraction of a number the first thing you need to do is to divide the number by the denominator
First we worked out that 105 divided by 7 was 15 most most of us drew 7 circles we counted in 10s 7 times and then in 5s and that made 105 which left 15 in each group.
The next step is to take the number 15 and times it by the number which was 4.
15x4 = 60
The answer is 60.
60 mussels could be taken by the fisherman -4/7 of 105 is 60 mussels
