Activity Sheet Solving Problems On Real Numbers-1

This document provides a lesson on solving word problems involving real numbers. It presents two sample word problems, showing the step-by-step process to identify the given information, plan the solution, write the mathematical equation, solve, and verify the answer. Students are then asked to solve five additional word problems using this IPESA (Identify, Plan, Equation, Solution, Answer) method. They are also asked questions to evaluate their understanding and techniques for solving these types of problems.

SOLVING PROBLEMS INVOLVING REAL NUMBERS


I. LEARNING OBJECTIVES
 Represents real-life situations and solves word problems involving real numbers.
II. PRESENTATION OF THE LESSON
Let’s explore on how to solve problems involving real numbers.

Problem 1: Ezekiel bought 4 shirts at PhP 600 each. How much is he going to pay the cashier for the four
shirts?
Solution:
Remember, before you proceed to this step make sure you read and understand each word. You
may need dictionary or internet connection to look for the words which are difficult for you.
Step 1: Identify. What are we looking for? We need to identify the given and unknown in the
problem. We can represent a variable for the unknown such as “x” to represent the variable.
There are given which are not necessary in solving the problem.
Given: Ezekiel bought 4 shirts at PhP 600 each
Unknown: Total cost of four shirts.
Representation: Let x be the cost of the four shirts.
Step 2: Plan. How will I solve? Strategy is a must in solving a word problem.
Since, the price of a single shirt is PhP 600. We can multiply 4 and 600.
Step 3: Equation. What will be the equation?
(4)(600) = x
Step 4: Solution. Do the Math.
(4)(600) = x
2400 = x
Step 5: Answer. Verify your answer by substituting your answer to the original equation. If both sides
of the equation are not equal, then your answer does not satisfy the equation.
(4)(600) = 2 400
2 400 = 2 400
2 400 satisfies the equation. Therefore, Ezekiel will pay PhP 2, 400 for the 4 shirts.
Problem 2. Mr. Santos has a debt of PhP 150, 550. His 5 children decided to help him pay his debt. How
much will each of his children share?
Solution
Let x be the share of each children.
150 550 ÷ 5 = x
30, 110 = x
Verify,
150 550 ÷ 5 = 30, 110
30, 110 = 30, 110
Therefore, each children of Mr. Santos will share PhP 30, 110 to pay his debt.
IPESA is a method used to solve the problem.
Identify, Plan, Equation, Solution and Answer.

III. LEARNING ACTIVITIES
