Finding circumference using our known feet length

Today for math we were doing measurement to find the circumference of a circle out on the courts. I had already worked out how many of my feet length in a metre from last weeks lesson. 4 feet lengths of my feet make a metre. So I used my feet length to measure the diameter of circle. It was 12 feet lengths for me so it must have been 3 metres. I then multiplied 3 metres using pi(π = 3.14) using the formula Circumference = 3.14 x 3 metres = 9.42m. So the circumference of the circle is 9.42m.

Math and Ratio's

We have been working on ratios. We have 17 grapes and 34 dogs. The two ratios are separated by a colon or could written as 17 to 34  or 17/34. So we have a ratio of 17:34 and the reason that 17 is first in the ratio is because it was mentioned first and 34 for was mentioned last so it was put last in the ratio. A ratio can also be written as a fraction 17/34 then as an equivalent fraction which is 1/2 as 17 out of 34 is half.
