Show Answer Key & Explanations Step-by-step solution for: 4th-Grade Math Word Problems
Let's solve each problem step by step:

---

Problem 1:


Jade has 1281 baseball cards. Kyle has 1535. If Jade and Kyle combine their baseball cards, how many cards will there be? Estimate.

#### Solution:
To find the total number of baseball cards, we add the number of cards Jade has to the number of cards Kyle has:
\[
1281 + 1535 = 2816
\]

#### Estimation:
For estimation, we can round the numbers to the nearest hundred:
- 1281 rounds to 1300
- 1535 rounds to 1500

Adding these rounded numbers:
\[
1300 + 1500 = 2800
\]

So, the estimated total is 2800.

#### Final Answer:
\[
\boxed{2816}
\]

Problem 2:


What will your garden look like if the shape is a quadrilateral and has two pairs of matching parallel sides and no right angles?

#### Solution:
A quadrilateral with two pairs of matching parallel sides is called a parallelogram. Since it has no right angles, it cannot be a rectangle or a square. The most common example of such a shape is a rhombus or a general parallelogram.

#### Final Answer:
\[
\text{The garden will look like a parallelogram.}
\]

Problem 3:


At the bake sale you sold cookies for 5 cents each. You earned $4.50. How many cookies did you sell?

#### Solution:
First, convert the total earnings from dollars to cents:
\[
\$4.50 = 450 \text{ cents}
\]

Each cookie is sold for 5 cents. To find the number of cookies sold, divide the total earnings by the price per cookie:
\[
\frac{450}{5} = 90
\]

#### Final Answer:
\[
\boxed{90}
\]

---

Problem 4:


You are planting 47 flowers but want them to go into 6 rows. How many flowers will be in each row?

#### Solution:
To determine how many flowers will be in each row, divide the total number of flowers by the number of rows:
\[
\frac{47}{6} = 7 \text{ remainder } 5
\]

This means that each row will have 7 flowers, and there will be 5 flowers left over. Since the problem does not specify how to handle the remainder, we can state the result as:
\[
7 \text{ flowers per row, with 5 flowers remaining.}
\]

#### Final Answer:
\[
\boxed{7 \text{ flowers per row, with 5 flowers remaining.}}
\]

---

Problem 5:


There are 369 families that donated $6.00 to the school fundraiser. How much money was donated?

#### Solution:
To find the total amount of money donated, multiply the number of families by the donation per family:
\[
369 \times 6 = 2214
\]

So, the total amount donated is $2214.

#### Final Answer:
\[
\boxed{2214}
\]

---

Problem 6:


The teacher baked a batch of muffins. There are 16 in a batch. She ate 1/4 of the batch. She baked two more batches. How many muffins does she now have?

#### Solution:
1. Calculate the number of muffins eaten:
The teacher ate \( \frac{1}{4} \) of the first batch:
\[
\frac{1}{4} \times 16 = 4
\]
So, she ate 4 muffins.

2. Calculate the number of muffins remaining after eating:
The original batch had 16 muffins, so after eating 4:
\[
16 - 4 = 12
\]

3. Calculate the total number of muffins after baking two more batches:
Each batch has 16 muffins, and she baked 2 more batches:
\[
2 \times 16 = 32
\]
Adding these to the remaining 12 muffins:
\[
12 + 32 = 44
\]

#### Final Answer:
\[
\boxed{44}
\]

---

Problem 7:


My grandmother's age divided by 15 is 5. How old is my grandmother?

#### Solution:
Let \( x \) be the grandmother's age. According to the problem:
\[
\frac{x}{15} = 5
\]

To find \( x \), multiply both sides of the equation by 15:
\[
x = 5 \times 15 = 75
\]

#### Final Answer:
\[
\boxed{75}
\]

---

Final Answers:


1. \(\boxed{2816}\)
2. \(\text{The garden will look like a parallelogram.}\)
3. \(\boxed{90}\)
4. \(\boxed{7 \text{ flowers per row, with 5 flowers remaining.}}\)
5. \(\boxed{2214}\)
6. \(\boxed{44}\)
7. \(\boxed{75}\)
