1.  Problems to Solve

 Mrs Long has £10, Mrs Bernard has £8.50. They want to put their cash together to buy Mr. MacBean a new coat for £30. How much more money do they need?

There are 80 sweets in the jar. Mr. MacBean eats 30 of them. Mrs Thorne and Mrs Long share the rest equally between them. How many do Mrs Thorne and Mrs Long get each?

Mrs. Long and Mrs. Bernard both give £15 towards buying “Snappy” the new classroom pet crocodile. He costs £50, so how much more money do they need to save up?
