Another thing we have been learning in maths is how to solve word problems involving combinations of things. You had to be able to write addition equations showing as many different combinations as we could.
Some people found it was useful to do your figuring out using a table. But not the kind of table you eat off-a mathematical table.
Here is my work.
I think you need to re-order the numbers in your 4th equation for the number of the day problem. Maybe you also need one more combination for the bugs problem. Does using a table make it easier for you to solve these kinds of problems?
