Mr Rogers bought a bag of elastic bands for £6 Each elastic band costs 12p.
Work out the number of elastic bands in the bag.

Step-by-step explanation:

12p = £0.12

to answer how many elastic bands are in the bag we need to find out how often £0.12 fits into £6.

and that we do by division :

6 ÷ 0.12 = 50

so, there are 50 elastic bands in the bag.

if you cannot use a calculator, this is how you solve this by hand relatively easily :

6 / 0.12 = 6 / 12/100 = 6 × 100/12 = 1 × 100/2 = 50

1 is b and 2 is d
