It's great to have pple like u guys to help us selflessly. Tysm

Ty Muffins, Tutormum and Mathsguru for ans! Now i understand how to do it.


Next ques: The sum of two numbers is 15 but the difference is 7. Find the bigger number.

It seems like I'm the only one who keep asking ques :lol: Paisey.
I know the ans is 11 but i duno hw to guide him thru explanation.

Ty for yr explanation but I still dun get it. Is it possible u draw out the model and show me? Btw, yr ans is correct. So sry still need to ask u 1 more ques.


Tank A had 345 litres of water more than Tank B. Tank B had 500 litres of water less than Tank C. How much more water was there in Tank C than in Tank A? This ques is extracted fr 1 of the school exam ques but I duno how to explain it to my nephew, is it possible u show me with model drawing too?

Hi Mathguru,

I would like to check with u the ques of this; A sausage roll was cut into 5 equal pieces. Shu Qin took a piece and ate 1/2 of it. What fraction of the sausage roll was not eaten? Ans: 2/5 rite? It’s a P2 assessment book. Because the ans that was given seems different from mine and I dun have much confidence in myself.

I did ask my sis not to bring him for outings but she ignored at times. He's not my son afterall, I've no say in it. It's not easy when too many pple discipline one kid.... I do not spoil a child like some other parents. Give whatever their kids asked for. It's not so gd, the kids will not be able to take hardships in future.

Tang:

concern2:

He needs to learn to love himself Sounds like you may the one to turn his life around :shock: before it is too late

Sounds exactly like my sister.

She speeds up when she can play computer games or gameboy after her meal or homework.

Oh yes, exactly like yrs!!!! Whenever I allowed him to play PSP or xbox 360, I realised that after playing, he did even badly in his homework! Duno why like that. So I chose not to let him play when comes to test or exam, he sure scored badly in his paper....Lately, he kept complaining this and that...no time to play but it's he himself slow in his work, other kids can complete a couple set of worksheets in the given time, 2 to 3 hrs but he can take 5 to 8 hrs to complete it...that\"s why no time to play.....he simply dun get it when I tried to explain to him that the pb lies on him....always make those irritating sound.......

My nephew is also a stubborn person, always thinks he is right. Still doesn’t know how to cherish the things he has, taking things for granted. And he always loves to argue with u. How to make him listen to u without talking back at u?

Omg, u guys are so gd at training yr kids. Frankly speaking, still have to wash the car...abit over loh....* No offense*


If I were to ask my nephew to do all those things, he will definitely complain! He is slow in completing his homework even he's free, he will only want to play. How to get him to do the chores automatically?

Hi Mrs Wong, u are so blessed to have such a gd parents. If all the parents could be like yr parents, that would be great. Even though my nephew is the only son of my sis but I do feel that they dun love him that much. Sometimes I'm wondering, y in the first place still want to give birth to him, let him suffer in this world.....I must admit I'm not a gd auntie too, coz I will hit him too if he shows disrespect to me or din pay attention to what I said.


His parents would never send him to that workshop, Guan hui....

Very grateful to u guys for giving me such wonderful advices, appreciate that. It's an excellent forum for pple to communicate and get info from one another....
