Solve the following word problems. Show number sentence and your workings.

1. A school bus is 8 meters long and a car is 4 meters


shorter than the school bus. How long is the car?

8 - 4 = 4 meters

2. Ronnie can ride his bicycle at 6 meters per second. How many meters
can he ride in 12 seconds?

6 x 12 = 72 meters

3. An apple tree is 210 cm and a mango tree is 170 cm


tall. How much shorter is the mango than the apple tree?

210 - 170 = 40 centimeters

4. John is 150 cm tall. If he jumps 50 cm off the ground, how high does
the top of his head reach from the ground??

150 + 50 = 200 centimeters

5. Andrew cut a 60 cm rope in 5 equal pieces.How long was


each piece he cut?

60 : 5 = 12 centimeters

6. James ran 50 meters. Petra ran 5 meters more than James and Peter
ran 10 less than Petra. How many meters did they run alltogether?

50 + (50 + 5) + (55 - 10) = 150 meters
