Division using factors

Straightforward worksheet with example of how to divide using factors and 15 questions. (This is so much easier than long division, so long as the divisor can be broken into convenient factors. Wish I had known about this year ago!) (12/7/16) Answers uploaded

Place value - use scales to find intermediate decimal values

(0)
20 quick questions. Use scale on left to get middle value (eg. between 5 and 6) or to establish the increments on the scale. 2nd question, fill in two more values on scale on right based on that answer. Repeat x 10. (Most increments are 10, but some are just five 'per unit'. One, two and 3 decimal places.)

Chronological age - calculator sheet
madalienmadalien

Chronological age - calculator sheet

(0)
Spreadsheet that calculates chronological ages. It works (I hope!) correctly for months of different lengths etc. (No awkward cludges of dividing days by 30 to get months.) First tab on the sheet is set up so you can enter a whole class. The second tab is just for quickly checking single dates of birth. The main calculations in the first tab are carried out in columns D to J, which are hidden. If you look at the formulae, you will see that the formula is far from elegant - but calculating chronological ages is not an elegant process! I realise that the year calculation could be simpler, but I couldn't be bothered to edit it...
