The page number at the left side is 72.

Finding two consecutive numbers mentally with the given sum
John is opening his book where the sum of the pages

is 145. What page is at the left side?
Note: The page number at the left side is smaller.
To get the smaller number, subtract 1 from the sum,

then divide the difference by 2.
145 – 1 = 144
144 ÷ 2 = 72
The page number at the left side is 72.

To get the bigger number, add 1 to

the sum, then divide the result by 2.
145 + 1 = 146

The bigger number is 55.
Finding the missing numbers given the sum and difference
The sum of two numbers is 84. If they

differ by 26, what is the bigger number?
Solution:
To find the bigger number: The bigger number is 55.

84 + 26 = 110
110 ÷ 2 = 55
To find the smaller number:
84 – 26 = 58
The smaller
58 ÷ 2 = 29 number is 29.
Rex is 12 years younger than Jun. If

There were 34 seeds planted to

8 pots. Some pots were planted 5
seeds and the other were planted
with 3 seeds. How many pots were
planted with 3 seeds?
There were 3 pots planted with 3 seeds.

Solving simple equations with two unknowns mentally
There were 34 seeds planted to 8 pots. Some pots
were planted 5 seeds and the other were planted with 3
seeds. How many pots were planted with 3 seeds?
Solution:
1. Since we are looking for the number of pots planted with 3 seeds, we
will assume that all pots were planted with 5 seeds.
8 x 5 = 40
2. Get the difference of the product and the total number of seeds.
40 – 34 = 6
3. Get the difference of the number of seeds in each kind of pot
5–3=2
4. Divide the result in step 2 by the result in step 3
6÷2=3
Answer: There were 3 pots planted with 3 seeds.

animals were hens.
12 x 2 = 24
2. Get the difference of the product and the total number of legs.
44 – 24 = 20
3. Get the difference of the number of legs in each animal
4–2=2
4. Divide the result in step 2 by the result in step 3
