1. This question says, "How many more of __________ than __________? The 3 words - "How many more.." are key words that let you know you will subtract. So the larger bag of rice is 534 grams and the smaller bag is 189 grams. To figure how much more the larger one weighs than the smaller one, you will need to subtract 189 from 534. 534 - 189 = 345. So the larger bag is 345 grams larger than the smaller bag. 2. "How much does Bo's dog weigh," is the question. Always ask yourself, "What is the question I need to answer?" So the problems tells us Bo's dog weighs 4 times as much as Aja's cat. Aja's cat weighs 12 pounds so 4 x 12 = 48. Bo's dog weighs 48 pounds. 3. What is the question? Is it , "Has Isa drunk enough water?" If so, the answer is no. 9 cups of water on each of the first 4 days would be 36 cups of water. 36 is less than 56. We need to know what she drank on the remaining days of the week (other 3 days of the week) to see if she consumed enough to make 56 cups for the week. 4. What is the question?

There is 16 ounces in one pound of flour. If John uses 10 ounces out of a 3 pound bag, he has 2 pounds and 6 ounces left in the bag of flour.


1.A small bag of rice has a mass of 189 grams. A large bag of rice has a mass of 534 grams.

How many more grams is the mass of the large bag than the small bag?

534 - 189 = 345 more grams in the large bag


2. Aja's cat weighs 12 pounds. Bo's dog weighs 4 times as much as Aja's cat. 

How much does Bo's dog weigh? 12 x 4 = 48 pounds
