In a series of mathematical challenges suitable for Year 3 students, the tasks revolve around basic multiplication, division, and problem-solving skills. The exercises begin with a simple question about the cost of lollies: if one lolly is priced at 10p, students must calculate the total cost for 2 and 4 lollies. This is a straightforward application of multiplication, with the answers being 20p and 40p respectively, derived from multiplying the number of lollies by the cost per lolly. Additionally, there is a real-world application problem where students add up the distances cycled to school by Liza, William, and Leanna, totalling 17 miles collectively. This helps to reinforce the concept of addition in a practical context.

The exercises also delve into fractions and division. One task requires students to determine one third of a number, enhancing their understanding of fractions as part of a whole. Another practical problem involves Leanna collecting eggs, out of which she breaks a fraction on her way home. Students must calculate the number of broken eggs, which introduces them to the concept of dividing a whole into parts. These exercises are designed to be engaging and relatable, ensuring that the mathematical concepts are understood and remembered. The blend of numerical operations and real-life scenarios provides a comprehensive approach to learning for Year 3 students in their Spring Term.
