    Bronze:
    The badger was correct because if you count the colours 17 times you will end on the yellow one

  3. Evie T.

    A, the smallest amount of coins to pay exactly with is 1, 50p, 1, 20p and 1, 5p

    It is incorrect becouse 10×8 is not 50 because 10×8 is 80.
    Gold
    The smallest amount is 50p , 20p and 5p .
    The largest amount is 1p 75p times

  5. Salman O.

    Bronze : He is right because p y b p y b p y b p y b p y b p y yellow is number 17 .

    Silver : No they are wrong because 5 x 10 = 50 so they need just 5 boxes.

    Gold : a) the smallest is 50p+ 20p + 5p = 75p
    b) the largest is 5p+5p+5p+5p+5p+5p+5p+5p+5p+5p+5p+5p+5p+5p+5p=75p

    The badger is right because the 17th egg is yellow.
    Silver
    The geese is not right because 8 boxes will hold 80 geese so for 50 eggs they would need 5 boxed . 5 times 10 equals 50.

    Yes the badger is right as if you continue the colour pattern up to 17 it will land on a yellow egg

    Silver
    The geese is wrong as one box holds 10 eggs so you only need 5 boxes to carry 50 eggs
    50 divide 10 = 5

    Gold
    A) The smallest number of coins the easter bunny can pay with 50p + 20p + 5p = 75p
    B) The largest coins the easter bunny can pay with are 1p coins to make the total of 75p

    Last year the bunny was using a cube box it has 8 vertices and 6 rectangular surfaces. Theis year the bunny is using a Triangular prism it has 3 rectangular surfaces and 2 vertices

  11. Advika B.

    Bronze: yes it is correct because the 17th egg is yellow.
    Silver ; no it is wrong because only 5 boxes we need to hold 50 eggs.

    The Easter bunny using shape is Triangular prism.

  15. Adam O.

    Bronze: the badger is corr3ft because the 17th egg is yellow.

    Silver: they are wrong because 5 X 10 in a box means they need 5 boxes for 50 eggs not 8 boxes.

    Gold: a) 50p, 20p and 5p
    b) 75 X 1p

    1. Adam O.

    Gold challenge:
    a) the largest number of coins are 15, 5p
    5+5+5+5+5+5+5+5+5+5+5+5+5+5+5=75
    Smallest numbers of coins are
    b)50+20+5=75

  17. Saalihah H.

    Silver
    They are wrong. It is 5 boxes than 8 boxes. 8 means 80 eggs.
    Gold

  20. Ella K.

    Bronz/ Yes,pink,yellow,blue,pink,yellow,blue,pink,yellow,blue,pink,yellow,blue,pink,yellow,blue,pink,🟡, blue.

    🟡 is the answer
    Silver/ No, because 5 box to put 50 eggs.
    Gold/ 1p is smallest coin
    50p is largest coin

  21. Esa I.

    Bronze
    The 17th colour is yellow because if you do the colours to the 18th colour and look at the 17th colour it will be yellow. So the badger is correct.
    ______________________________
    Silver
    The geese is wrong because if one box can hold ten eggs then you will need five boxes to add 50 eggs in it.
    ______________________________
    Gold
    The smallest way to make 75p is 50p+20p+5p=75p.
    The largest way to make 75p is 5p+5p+5p+5p+5p+5p+5p+5p+20p+5p+5p+5p=75p

  22. Bilal U.

    Bronze
    Yes because the 17th egg is yellow and the 18th egg is blue. The pattern is pink, yellow, blue which makes the 17th egg yellow.

    Silver
    No because 1 box hold 10 eggs so 5 boxes holds 50 eggs. 10 divide by 50 = 5

    Gold
    To make 75 p with the smallest amount of coins is 50p and a 20p and a 5p coins.

    To make 75p with largest amount of coins is
    2p + 2p + 1p + 10p + 10p + 5p + 5p + 5p + 5p + 1p + 1p + 1p + 1p + 1p + 10p + 5p + 5p + 5p

    Bronze:
    The badger is right because the 17th egg will be yellow. Here is how I worked it out.
    PYB,PYB,
    5×3=15
    Because it is close to the number 17, but it only makes 15 eggs.
    PYB,PYB,PYB,PYB,PYB
    15+2=17
    To get to the 17th egg.
    PYB,PYB,PYB,PYB,PYB, PY
    Yellow is the colour of the 17th egg

    Silver:
    The geese is wrong because each box holds eggs. If you had 8 boxes there would be 80 eggs because 10×8=80. But 80 is more than 50. So to get 50 eggs you need 5 boxes only.

    Gold:
    Smallest number of coins-
    50p+20p+5p=75p
    Largest number of coins-
    5p+5p+5p+5p+5p+5p+5p+5p+5p+5p+10p+10p+2p+2p+1p=75p

    The easter bunnies is correct because the seventeenth egg is yellow I know this because I counted on my hands and it repeats.

    10+10 10+10+10=50

    1p+1p+1p+1p+1p +10p+10p+50p=75p

  26. Maryam K.

    Bronze
    Maryam thinks that the badgers is correct because when you get to 17 the colour is yellow.

    Silver
    Maryam thinks that they are incorrect because when we calculated it we only needed 5 boxes for 50 eggs.

    Gold
    1p+1p+1p+10p+10p+10p+20p+20p+1p+1p+=75p
    50p+20p+5p=75p

  27. Latifa A.

    silver
    no because there are 50 eggs a box can fit 10 if there were 8 boxes it would be 8×10=80 so no.

  28. Iqra S.

    Yes because it repeats
    No because ten times five Is fifty so the Easter rabbit needs five boxes
