Which set of blocks shows one less
than six?
In this question, we’re shown four
different cube trains, each containing a different number of blocks. We have to find the cube train that
has one less than six. What is one less than six? We could use this counting frame to
help us. We need to find one less than
six. So we need to place six blocks in
our counting frame. To find one less, we need to take
one block away. One less than six is five.
Now what we need to do is select
the cube train which has five blocks because five is one less than six. Let’s count the number of blocks in
the first cube train. One, two, three, four, five. This is the set of blocks we’re
looking for. Five is one less than six. This cube train has six blocks,
this one has seven, and this one has four.
The set of blocks which shows one
less than
five
[six] is the one with five blocks.
