Answers:

  1) Ans 1:
      Dinning table as dt,
      Chair as c
      Draw out a model. 

   1/3 spent from remaining
   [1unit] [1unit] [1unit] [1unit] [1unit------]
    1dt + 4c---><-oven>
    Oven = 1unit = 195
   1dt + 4c = 2 unit = 195 x 2 = $390

   Ans 2:
   195 / 3 = 65
     65 x 6 = 390

   (a) $390

   390 - 140 = 250
   250 / 5 = 50
    50 + 140 = 190
   (b) $190

  2) (20 x 2) + (17 x 4) = 108
    (a) Mr Ho pay 108 in all.

      Guess and check method:

No. of child	Total	No. of adult	Total	Total	True/False
20	340	20	400	740	F
10	170	30	600	770	T

    (b) 10

  3) 7 - 4 = 3
      White chocolate = 108 (in fraction 3/7)
      108 / 3 = 36
       4/7  3/7
       7 x 36 = 252

       Sold 5/12
       252 / 12 = 21
       21 x 5 = 105
      252 - 105 = 147 muffins

  4) 2 + 1.80 + 2 + 2.50 + 1.60 + 0.30 + 2 = 12.20
      She will save $12.20 at the end of the week.

  5) 2/5 + 1/4 = 13/20
      1 - 13/20 = 7/20
      Siti saved 7/20 of her money.
