Problem Description:
The task involves coloring dots to represent specific numbers. Each row contains two sets of 10 dots, and the goal is to color enough dots to visually represent the given number.
Numbers to Represent:
1.
13
2.
17
3.
14
4.
11
5.
20
Solution Explanation:
#### Step 1: Understand the Structure
Each row has two sets of 10 dots, making a total of 20 dots per row. To represent a number, you need to color the appropriate number of dots.
#### Step 2: Color the Dots for Each Number
1.
Number 13:
- Total dots needed: 13
- First set of 10 dots: Color all 10 dots.
- Second set of 10 dots: Color 3 more dots.
- Result: 10 (from the first set) + 3 (from the second set) = 13.
2.
Number 17:
- Total dots needed: 17
- First set of 10 dots: Color all 10 dots.
- Second set of 10 dots: Color 7 more dots.
- Result: 10 (from the first set) + 7 (from the second set) = 17.
3.
Number 14:
- Total dots needed: 14
- First set of 10 dots: Color all 10 dots.
- Second set of 10 dots: Color 4 more dots.
- Result: 10 (from the first set) + 4 (from the second set) = 14.
4.
Number 11:
- Total dots needed: 11
- First set of 10 dots: Color all 10 dots.
- Second set of 10 dots: Color 1 more dot.
- Result: 10 (from the first set) + 1 (from the second set) = 11.
5.
Number 20:
- Total dots needed: 20
- First set of 10 dots: Color all 10 dots.
- Second set of 10 dots: Color all 10 dots.
- Result: 10 (from the first set) + 10 (from the second set) = 20.
#### Step 3: Visual Representation
Here is how the coloring should look for each number:
1.
13: Color all 10 dots in the first set and 3 dots in the second set.
2.
17: Color all 10 dots in the first set and 7 dots in the second set.
3.
14: Color all 10 dots in the first set and 4 dots in the second set.
4.
11: Color all 10 dots in the first set and 1 dot in the second set.
5.
20: Color all 10 dots in both sets.
Final Answer:
The solution involves coloring the dots as described above. Here is a summary:
-
13: Color 10 dots in the first set and 3 dots in the second set.
-
17: Color 10 dots in the first set and 7 dots in the second set.
-
14: Color 10 dots in the first set and 4 dots in the second set.
-
11: Color 10 dots in the first set and 1 dot in the second set.
-
20: Color all 20 dots (10 in each set).
