And rang.. And rang… And rang!

See if you can solve the problems in this story…

The Doorbell Rang!

4 rows of 4 cookies baked on a

tray,

“That’s how many cookies?” I

heard Mum say.

Mum always liked to be fair.

So how many cookies each

could we share?

Ding Dong! Someone was at the door!

It was D’Arcy and Jessie. Can we share 16

cookies between 4?

Mum baked some more, which was just as

well,

Because Jack and Lillie arrived (they must

have noticed the smell)!

Now there were 30 cookies to share,

And 6 of us, so tell me what would be

fair?

Mum continued to bake away,

6 more friends came over after they

finished ballet!

That’s 12 of us now! And there’s 60

cookies to share!

Can you work out a way for that to

Uh oh! Someone else was at the door!

“YAY! It’s Grandma! And she’s brought over

even more!”
