Someone ate my cake!


🍰In this updated activity, students analyze a photo of a partially eaten cake to figure out how much was taken, what fraction is left, and how much the culprit might owe based on the cake’s total price.

Note: The main task is designed to be more open-ended and independent, so the starter activity (Click solutions & supporting materials )plays an important role in setting the stage.

📝 Suitable for Grades 3-5 

⏰ Time: 30 minutes
