Weekly Maths Problem

Don’t forget to write out the problem at the top of the page, date the work and show all your workings out (even the wrong answers) and then file the evidence in your folder!

Mae wants to buy a new dress for a Prom party. The dress she wants costs 625.00. Her mum says “No, that is way too much.” Her mum buys a similar dress pattern, some fabric, some cotton and some buttons. Her mum spends £98.78 and makes the dress. How much does Mae’s mum save on the dress?

You can share your answers here in the forum on the website or with me as I visit during the week. Remember you need to show your workings out to get the maximum points.
