Please identify by the colour of the pot, thanks.

Dats wot I got two callistemon. You shud be ok ?

Callistemon Tue 09-Jun-20 22:33:04

I hope that's right, Bellanonna!
Miss might be along in a minute to give me detention.

Bellanonna Tue 09-Jun-20 22:26:01

Thank you, Callistemon xx

Callistemon Tue 09-Jun-20 22:17:40

Yellow pot = purple pot in value
Yellow pot + yellow pot + purple pot = 51

All are equal value so each pot = 17 (51 ÷ 3 = 17)

Purple pot x orange pot = 0
17 x orange pot = 0
So orange pot must = 0

Any number multiplied by nought equals nought

Could someone explain the answer please?

I tried to play the harp, but I was feeling a bit naughty and used it to ping toffees at the Gardner , mummy took it away and put it in the attic.
I play the recorder, but sometimes spit comes out of the end and Mummy says it’s not ladylike.

Feeling yes I have Piano, Deportment and singing lessons, but so far I haven’t been electrocuted, maybe next term?
Maybe Pants and Doodle can give me electrocution lessons?
We only have small mansion, it has very big gates, Mummy say it keeps the riff and raffia out.
