(Ice Cream Cones Length Question)

PSLE Math 2017 Paper 2 Question 12

Ans: 21

6 gaps → 26cm - 14cm = 12cm
1 gap → 12cm ÷ 6 = 2cm
1/2m = 50cm
1 cone → 14cm - 2cm - 2cm = 10cm

No. of gaps → (50cm - 10cm) ÷ 2cm = 20
No. of cones that he can pack → 20 + 1 = 21

OR

50cm - 26cm = 24cm
No. of cones to pack → 9 + (24cm ÷ 2cm) = 21
