Solving problems with rounding worksheet
Maths Resource Description
This worksheet, designed for KS2 students, revolves around the practical application of rounding numbers through engaging problem-solving activities. The first activity requires the children to create word problems based on division calculations that result in a remainder. They must write one problem where the remainder is rounded up and another where it's rounded down, providing explanations for their choices. For instance, if the division calculation is 51 ÷ 6, resulting in 8.5, the rounding up scenario might involve distributing 51 children across boats that can carry 6 each, necessitating 9 boats to ensure all children are accommodated. The rounding down example could involve 51 sweets shared among 6 children, where each child gets 8 sweets, and 3 are left over.
The second activity challenges the students to handle data involving large numbers, such as the distances of planets from the sun. They are tasked with deciding the level of accuracy required when rounding these numbers for various purposes. An example given is to round the planets' distances to the nearest 100km. The children must then articulate the reasoning behind their rounding decisions. The overall objective of the worksheet is to solve problems that require answers to be rounded to specific degrees of accuracy, helping students to understand the practical implications and methods of rounding in everyday contexts.
