3rd Grade Two-Step Word Problems

How do you find out how many cans each family receives if there are 8 families?

• 56 ÷ 6 = 9 cans per family.

• 56 ÷ 8 = 7 cans per family.

• 56 ÷ 4 = 14 cans per family.

• 56 ÷ 10 = 5.6 cans per family.

If Mr. Day has 31 cans on Monday and 25 cans on Tuesday, how do you find the total number of cans?

• Add the two amounts: 31 + 25 = 56 cans.

• Multiply the two amounts: 31 * 25 = 775 cans.

• Subtract the Tuesday amount from the Monday amount: 31 - 25 = 6 cans.

• Divide the Monday amount by the Tuesday amount: 31 / 25 = 1.24 cans.

How do you solve a two-step word problem?

• 1. Read the problem carefully, identify the two operations needed, perform the first operation, and then use the result to perform the second operation.

• 1. Guess the answer and check if it makes sense.

• 1. Write down the problem and ask someone else to solve it for you.

• 1. Solve the problem in one step by combining both operations.

What do you do after Unique gives 2 groups to her sister?

• Subtract the number of headbands given away from the total: 49 - (2 groups × 7 headbands) = 35 headbands left.

• Add the number of headbands given away to the total: 49 + (2 groups × 7 headbands) = 63 headbands left.

• Multiply the number of headbands given away by the total: 49 × (2 groups × 7 headbands) = 686 headbands left.

• Divide the number of headbands given away from the total: 49 / (2 groups × 7 headbands) = 3.5 headbands left.

If Yovanni received $52 and spent $44, how do you find out how much he has left?

• Add the amount spent to the amount received: 52 + 44 = $96.

• Multiply the amount received by the amount spent: 52 * 44 = $2288.

• Subtract the amount spent from the amount received: 52 - 44 = $8.

• Divide the amount received by the amount spent: 52 / 44 = $1.18.

If Unique has 49 headbands and splits them into 7 groups, how many headbands are in each group?
