How to explain math problems to 3rd grader

Step-by-step explanation:

This is a super question and it is an excellent exercise for you. When I was teaching, once every term, I would ask my physics class to explain acceleration to a 7 year old. The stats favored the older women (mothers) who took the class. Almost none of the guys could do it. Here's why.

You are trying to teach a seven or eight year old. Believe it or not, the first thing you have to do is check and see if they know their facts. Can they do 7+8 or 9+ 6 without hesitancy. If they can do those facts do they know the multiplication facts. 4 * 5 etc. They must know those things cold, or you are wasting your time. Don't ask me why. But you can't go on without those 2 fact types solid.

I take it you are trying to do word problems. The best thing you can do is teach them to read.

A man has a dime and a nickel and a penny. How much money does he have? Us a marker to underline the key statement.

a dime,

a nickel

a penny should be underlined. Don't ask for an answer - yet.

Keep doing this problem over and over. You are not trying to get an answer. You are trying to get them to understand how to read a question

A person has just less than 4 quarters just less than 5 dimes and just less than 4 nickels. How many coins does he have. That's an important question because the grade three-er is going to have to know what less means.

That should get you started.

step-by-step explanation:

54 km / hours

step-by-step explanation:

we need to convert seconds to hours

60 seconds = 1 minutes

60 minutes = 1hour

15 m         60 second   60 minutes

  * *         = 54000 meters/ hour

second     1 minute             1 hour

now we need to convert meters to km

1000 m = 1 km

54000 m       1 km

*   = 54 km / hours

hour               1000m
