The 'Fluent in Four - Revision' exercise provides a series of mathematical challenges designed for Year 5 students during their Summer Term. On Day 3 of Week 9, the tasks begin with multiplication problems that require students to find the missing factor. Examples include finding what number multiplied by 8 equals 48, and determining the number that, when multiplied by 18, gives a product of 576, which is also the result of 72 multiplied by another number. The exercises are intended to reinforce multiplication skills and ensure that students are proficient in these calculations.

Another part of the exercise focuses on understanding symmetry, with students being asked to complete a shape based on its line of symmetry, which is a fundamental concept in geometry. Additionally, the worksheet incorporates real-life applications of mathematics, such as adding up the total number of cakes sold from Monday to Thursday, and then estimating which day roughly a quarter of the total sales occurred. The final activity requires students to sequence mixed numbers in ascending order, enhancing their number sense and ability to compare and order fractions. The answers provided indicate that the total number of cakes sold is 424, with approximately a quarter being sold on Wednesday. The correct order for the mixed numbers from least to greatest is given as A, E, C, B, D.
