Solving problems with two unknowns

10 lessons

Threads

  • Algebra
  • Number: Addition and Subtraction
  • Number: Multiplication and division

This unit introduces pupils to situations where a problem has two unknown values. They explore situations where there is one solution, where there are many solutions and where there are infinite solutions. Pupils use bar models to represent problems set in a range of contexts and explain how to balance an equation with two unknowns. This unit prepares them for more formal work in algebra with expressions and equations in Year 7.

  1. Compare the structure of problems with one or two unknowns
  2. Represent the structure of a problem with two unknowns in context
  3. Explain why there is sometimes only one solution to a problem
  4. Represent and solve problems with two unknowns efficiently
  5. Use a bar model to represent spatial problems with two unknowns
  6. Explain how to represent an equation with a bar model
  7. Solve problems with two unknowns in a range of contexts
  8. Explain how you know you have found all the possible solutions to a problem with two unknowns
  9. Explain how to balance an equation with two unknowns
  10. Solve problems with two unknowns with one, several and infinite solutions
