My Task: On your blog, tell us how you will solve this maths problem. You can write your answer in words, use a Sketchpad image or post a video explaining how you would figure it out. Be sure to give us your final answer.
I solved out 3 answers.
Answer 1: You will need 20 children because 15 x 20 = 300 and you will also need 10 adults because 10 x 20 = 200. 200 + 300 = 500
Answer 2: You will need 20 adults because 20 x 15 = 500, you won't need to use any children.
Answer 3: You will need 8 children because 15 x 8 = 120 and 14 adults because 14 x 20 = 280. 120 + 280 = 500.
Kia Ora Mary!

You are a wonderful blogger and an amazing mathemagician!
I love how you included some other possible answers!
I hope I am never in a position where I have to carry a 500kg squid! Although squid rings are super delicious! Have you ever tried squid rings?
Keep blogging :)
