• The yellow circles add together to make the green squares.

• A, B and C are positive whole numbers, can you find what they are?

Do we all get the same for A, B & C?

Who’s correct?

Let’s do it using algebra and then we know we have the correct answers!

• The yellow circles add together to make the green squares.

Success CriteriaStep 1) Write down what we knowA + B = 14B + C = 11A + C = 13. Step 2) Choose 2 sums and put them together, A + B + B + C = 14 + 11Step 3) Simplify itA + 2B + C = 25. Step 4) Take out what you canTake out of this A + C = 13, which leaves 2B = 12, so B is 6. Step 5) Put in the letter you have worked out and then it is easy to work the rest of the numbers out.

1 a A = 8, B = 7, C = 6

b A = 10, B = 15, C = 6

c A = 1, B = 11, C = 22

2 a A = –1, B = 5, C = 3

b A = 7, B = –3, C = 4

c A = –3, B = 6, C = –8
