1.  Yvonne has 19/24 feathers left. I worked that out by turning it into 24th's 3 times 8 =24 1 times 3=3 so 3/24 then 6 times 4=24 4 times 2 =8 and that is 8/24 8 times 3 = 24 8 times 1= 8 and boom 8/24. 3/24 + 8/24 + 8/24 = 19/24.

  1. Great Maths Ashur. It must have taken you a while to work it out, thats lots of maths. With question 1, I see you have worked out how much was left of each bag first. Maybe next time you could add that to your working out? I like that you have used multiplication to solve the problem. Awesome!
