Picture Puzzle
45
What is the value of
one reindeer and two
sleigh bells? Write the
25
value on the other side
of the scale.
Explain your solution:
Since 9 sleigh bells=45, each sleigh bell=5
because 9x5=45. Since 2 reindeer=6 sleigh
bells, 1 reindeer=3 sleigh bells. 3 sleigh
bells=5x3=15, so 1 reindeer is 15. 1 reindeer
and 2 sleigh bells=25, because 15 + 5 +
5=25.
