Problem Description:
The worksheet is designed to help students understand the concepts of
odd and
even numbers. The task involves identifying and coloring objects based on whether their count is odd or even.
Key Definitions:
-
Even Number: A number that can be divided into pairs without any leftovers. Examples: 2, 4, 6, 8, etc.
-
Odd Number: A number that cannot be divided into pairs without leaving one leftover. Examples: 1, 3, 5, 7, etc.
Task Breakdown:
1.
Color an odd number of apples:
- Count the total number of apples.
- Identify if the count is odd or even.
- Color only the apples that make the total count odd.
2.
Color an even number of bananas:
- Count the total number of bananas.
- Identify if the count is odd or even.
- Color only the bananas that make the total count even.
3.
Color an even number of watermelons:
- Count the total number of watermelons.
- Identify if the count is odd or even.
- Color only the watermelons that make the total count even.
4.
Color an odd number of ice cream cones:
- Count the total number of ice cream cones.
- Identify if the count is odd or even.
- Color only the ice cream cones that make the total count odd.
Solution:
#### Step 1: Count and Analyze Each Group
1.
Apples:
- Total apples: 5
- Since 5 is an
odd number, all apples should be colored.
2.
Bananas:
- Total bananas: 6
- Since 6 is an
even number, all bananas should be colored.
3.
Watermelons:
- Total watermelons: 4
- Since 4 is an
even number, all watermelons should be colored.
4.
Ice Cream Cones:
- Total ice cream cones: 7
- Since 7 is an
odd number, all ice cream cones should be colored.
#### Step 2: Color the Objects
-
Apples: Color all 5 apples (since 5 is odd).
-
Bananas: Color all 6 bananas (since 6 is even).
-
Watermelons: Color all 4 watermelons (since 4 is even).
-
Ice Cream Cones: Color all 7 ice cream cones (since 7 is odd).
Final Answer:
-
Apples: Color all 5 apples.
-
Bananas: Color all 6 bananas.
-
Watermelons: Color all 4 watermelons.
-
Ice Cream Cones: Color all 7 ice cream cones.
