    Mathematics

    I can solve one-step and two-step how many more and how many fewer problems from scaled graphs.

    Books Sold at the Book Fair

    Scale counts by 10s. Monday's bar ends on 50. Tuesday's bar ends halfway between 30 and 40. Wednesday's bar ends on 60. Thursday's bar ends halfway between 40 and 50.

    A bar graph of books sold shows Monday at 50, Tuesday at 35, Wednesday at 60 and Thursday at 45, with a scale that counts by tens.

    Use the graph above. Read each value first, then solve.

    1. 1.

      How many more books were sold on Wednesday than on Tuesday?

    2. 2.

      How many fewer books were sold on Thursday than on Monday?

    3. 3.

      How many books were sold in all?

    Solve each two-step problem. Show both steps.

    1. 4.

      How many more books were sold on Wednesday and Thursday together than on Monday and Tuesday together?

    2. 5.

      The goal was 250 books. How many more books were needed to reach it?
