Word Translations, Ch. 6, Problem # 7 Explanation

by Guest Tue Sep 23, 2008 8:18 pm

I think there's an error in the explanation for #7. The "6 + 483" should be "6 + 477", and the solution should therefore be 241.5.

159 x 3 = 477, not 483. 483 is the sum of 477 and 6.

Excellent! I'm always happy when my students figure things out for themselves - that's the best way! :)
