Let us Think — Question 2: Help Cranes Reach Their Food
2Help cranes reach their food using the number line.
Crane 1:
- To reach the worm: 667 − ___ steps = 650. Length of steps: ___
- To reach the fish: 667 + ___ steps = 700. Length of steps: ___
Crane 2:
- To reach the worm: ___ − ___ steps = 750. Length of steps: ___
- To reach the fish: ___ + ___ steps = 800. Length of steps: ___Show solution
Given:
So the crane takes 17 steps (each step of length 1), or it can take 1 step of 10 and 1 step of 7, or 1 step of 17.
Answer: . Number of steps: 17 (or 2 jumps: first 10, then 7).
---
Crane 1 — To reach the fish (going right/forward):
Given:
So the crane takes 33 steps, or it can take 1 step of 30 and 1 step of 3, or 1 step of 33.
Answer: . Number of steps: 33 (or 2 jumps: first 30, then 3).
---
Crane 2 — To reach the worm (going left/backward):
The crane is standing at some number and needs to reach 750. Based on the number line context (the second crane appears to be near 780):
Given:
Answer: . Number of steps: 30.
*(Note: The exact starting position of Crane 2 depends on the figure. If the crane stands at 780, then 30 steps back reaches 750.)*
