Maths

Today we had a very confusing geometry lesson. I had two partners to work with. It was Mateaki and Alfred. We worked on maths problem called Carries Cubes. Each side had 9 smaller squares. There was 6 sides. We had work on these questions below. We got the answers. We solved it by drawing dots to make sure everything was right.

How many of the original small cubes have:

1. three faces painted red = 8

2. two faces painted red = 12

3. one face painted red = 6

4. no faces painted red = 1
