Let's solve each problem step by step:
---
Problem 1: What is the value of the 6 in the number 68?
- The number 68 has two digits: 6 and 8.
- The digit 6 is in the
tens place.
- Therefore, the value of 6 in 68 is
60.
Answer: 60
---
Problem 2: Write down the next three numbers in this list: 8, 10, 12, 14
- The sequence increases by 2 each time:
- \( 8 + 2 = 10 \)
- \( 10 + 2 = 12 \)
- \( 12 + 2 = 14 \)
- Continuing this pattern:
- \( 14 + 2 = 16 \)
- \( 16 + 2 = 18 \)
- \( 18 + 2 = 20 \)
Answer: 16, 18, 20
---
Problem 3: You know that \( 13 + 4 = 17 \). What is \( 17 - 13 \)? What is \( 17 - 4 \)?
-
Part 1: \( 17 - 13 \)
- Subtracting 13 from 17:
\[
17 - 13 = 4
\]
-
Part 2: \( 17 - 4 \)
- Subtracting 4 from 17:
\[
17 - 4 = 13
\]
Answers:
- \( 17 - 13 = 4 \)
- \( 17 - 4 = 13 \)
---
Problem 4: What is \( 3 + 6 \)?
- Adding 3 and 6:
\[
3 + 6 = 9
\]
Answer: 9
---
Problem 5: Which three numbers could have a sum of 15?
- We need to find three numbers that add up to 15. There are many possible combinations. One simple example is:
\[
5 + 5 + 5 = 15
\]
- Another example could be:
\[
4 + 5 + 6 = 15
\]
Answer: (One possible answer) 5, 5, 5
---
Problem 6: \( 3 + 3 + 3 + 3 \) is the same as \( \square \times 3 \). What number is \( \square \)?
- The expression \( 3 + 3 + 3 + 3 \) means adding 3 four times:
\[
3 + 3 + 3 + 3 = 4 \times 3
\]
- Therefore, \( \square = 4 \).
Answer: 4
---
Problem 7: What is half of 12?
- To find half of 12, divide 12 by 2:
\[
12 \div 2 = 6
\]
Answer: 6
---
Problem 8: What are eight 10s?
- Eight 10s means multiplying 10 by 8:
\[
10 \times 8 = 80
\]
Answer: 80
---
Final Answers:
1. 60
2. 16, 18, 20
3. \( 17 - 13 = 4 \), \( 17 - 4 = 13 \)
4. 9
5. 5, 5, 5 (or another valid combination)
6. 4
7. 6
8. 80
Boxed Final Answer:
\[
\boxed{60, 16, 18, 20, 4, 13, 9, 5, 5, 5, 4, 6, 80}
\]
