12 days of Christmas maths problem

In Willow maths set we gave the children the highly challenging task of working out how many presents a person would receive if they received all of the presents from the Christmas carol '12 Days of Christmas'.

They needed to use their logical reasoning skills and systematically add each day at a time.

Sadly no one managed to complete the mammoth task within the lesson, but Aimiee was not going to give up that easily!

She continued to challenge herself at home and found the right answer! Amazing resilience Aimee!


In case you were wondering, the answer was 364!
