Room 10 Assignments for April 27th - May 1st 2020

Maths.

·         This week  we are going to cover the topic of MONEY (buying and selling goods)  p 131 & 132  PM 6 and converting money into currencies from other countries p134 PM 6 .When we have euros and want to convert it to another currency,  we always multiply the amount of euro we have by the exchange rate.

·         ( Quick tip to remember what to do: when we are going on holidays we want as much money as possible to spend. So think this,  we have euros and want to multiply to get as much foreign currency  to spend on holidays in that country. Multiply  the euros by the foreign exchange rate. However, when coming home from holidays we  have a smaller amount of foreign currency. So we convert our foreign currency to euro by dividing by the foreign exchange rate) Try these out and see how you get on.
