The answer can be left as fraction but need to reduce to lowest term

My goodness. The kids should think on the spot to answer all these questions. I am sure my DD will not know that she can write 4/12 or 1/3 litre and she will think think think forever.

I was also confused as in how to convert to litre? Currently asking DD to check with teacher to see if there is a typo error in that question. Will update again.

Hi All,


Need help for the following Math question. Thanks.

Lion_king:

Yes, a lot of projects & summaries of 西游记 for certain chapters. As for Chinese Ace project, they need to do 30 slides(ppt) & present. Deadline today. Sometimes, he needs to burn the midnight oil to finish the assignments given for a night to complete. This is apart from the Major project they have... Poor chap... He worked v hard so as to get the 1 point that he missed for the Chinese Test 74/100. Does your son have to work as hard?

Hi Lion_king,

Yes, my boy was given the same project to do for 西游记too. He was still rushing it on Sunday night too as they need to present it tomorrow. I think if I am not wrong, the boys are having the same chinese teacher - 谢老师.

Hi tabofamily, a warm welcome to MCS!


How is your DD getting on?

I live in Yishun too! Is your DD taking the sch bus?

Hey Gorilla, Tabomama,

I stay in Yishun too :rahrah:

Emelyn:

I really find that DS1 (1O1) is spending too much time on computer.

How do you parents manage that ?
He is forever reading EMB, working on his blog, on FB (so that he can ask his friends questions), use the Science CD, etc.

Of course, in between, he will sneak into Mousehunt to play. :mad:

I feel very uncomfortable.

Any parents feeling equally frustrated ?

Last night, DH and I decided to setup another study table in the Dining Room... so that he can use his laptop there.....under watchful eyes.... :evil:

Hi Emelyn,

Yeap, normally I will ask him how long he need to use it and will timed accordingly but the max is only up to 2hrs for weekdays only. After that, he either sms or call the classmates to discuss. We normally place the MacBook on our long dinning table.. he cannot carry the Mac book up to his room :evil:

Good morning,


Just a gentle reminder that this evening, 27 Jan (5:30pm - 9:00pm) there is a Secondary One Parents’ Symposium at HCI. It is held at High School Auditorium (English Session) and Drama Centre (Chinese Session)

Cheers,
wkong

Hi I have two questions from my son:


1. Find the smallest whole number that is not a factor of 1*2*3*4*5......*31

2. Find the largest prime number that divides this number

1*2*3....*59+1*2*3*4.....*60

Thank you in advance.

1. 37
2. 61

I have to say that your son's trainer (most probably maths olympiad) is a failure >_< as these are very simple questions at competition level.

Thanks Freki for your help. My DS wasn't trained for maths olympiad. This is part of his sch maths homework given by his sch teacher.

Hi I have two questions from my son:


1. Find the smallest whole number that is not a factor of 12345…31

2. Find the largest prime number that divides this number

123…59+123*4…*60

Thank you in advance.
