Maths challenge

On Thursday Year 1 were challenged with this question:

 

Max has 17 litres of paint in total.

He has 5 litres of blue paint.

How many litres were yellow?

 

Many of the children drew a part whole model on their whiteboard to help them complete the question. Well done to this young lady for being able to explain to the class, how she came to the answer.
