MATH
SOLVING TWO TO THREE – STEP WORD
PROBLEMS INVOLVING DIVISION AND ANY ONE
OR TWO OF THE OTHER FUNDAMENTAL
OPERATIONS LEARNED INCLUDING MONEY

A DepEd-BEAM Distance Learning Program supported by the Australian Agency for International Development
To the Learner

Good morning! Let’s go now to a little bit complicate word


problem solving. This involve 2 to 3 operations. So what is
needed is to read, understand and analyze the problem then
solve.

Let’s Learn This

Solving 2- to 3-step word problems involving division and


any one or two of the other fundamental operations learned
including money.

Let’s Try This

A. Can you still remember the steps when solving word


problems? What are they?

B. Perform the indicated operations.

1. (23 + 17) ÷ 4 =
2. (6 x 5) + (8 ÷ 4) =
3. (2 x 8) – (63 ÷ 9) =
4. 3 x (4 + 5) ÷ 9 =
5. 54 ÷ (2 + 4) =

Check your answer using the key to correction. If your


score is 4 or 5, you may now proceed to this module. If you get 3
correct answers or below, review first the previous lessons.

Let’s Study This

Read the problem below and answer the sets of questions


that follows.

Butch sold old newspapers for 32.00 and used


bottles for 45.00. With the money, he bought notebooks
at 12.00 each. How many notebooks he bought in all?
How much money was left with him?

Are you ready to answer the first set of questions? Then


here it is.

Set A

1. What did Butch do?


2. Do you also sell old newspapers and used bottles? Why?
3. What contribution can Butch extend to his family when
selling old newspapers and used bottles?

Set B

Let’s answer Set B questions together?

1. What are asked in the problem?

• The number of notebooks Butch were able to buy out of


his money
• and the money left with him

2. What data are given in the problem?

The given data are:

Cost of the old newspapers - 32.00


Cost of the used bottles - 45.00
Cost of one notebook - 12.00

3. What is the hidden question?

160
The hidden question is the total money earned from the old
newspapers and used bottles.

4. What is the number sentence for the problem?

( 32.00 + 45.00) ÷ 12.00 = n or ( 45 + 32) ÷ 12.00 = n


5. What is the solution?

Here’s the solution and the final answer.

Step 1 Step 2
32.00 6 notebooks
+ 45.00 12 77
77.00 72
5 remaining money

Butch had bought 6 notebooks and had 5.00 left with him.

6. How to check if the answer is correct?

Multiply 6 by 12.00. Then subtract the product from


77.00 to get 5.00.

Let’s try.

12 x 6 = 72.00; 77.00 – 72.00 =


5.00

Got it clearly?

Try this problem.

Zeny bought 12 potato chips at 5.00 each and 3 bags of


candies at 15.00 each. If she paid the cashier a 200.00
peso bill, how much will her change be?
