Term 2 Week 6

Kennel Club




Four dozen dogs live in 6 different colored kennels. The smallest kennel has 6 dogs and the orange kennel is the largest with 10 canines. The yellow kennel and the green kennel are the only ones with the same number of dogs. The 13 youngest pups are in the red and blue kennels with the least number of dogs. The purple kennel has 2 more dogs than the blue kennel. How many dogs are in each kennel? Make a chart.

    We know that orange has to have 10 dogs. Red or Blue needs to had 6 and 7 dogs. Purple needs to have 2 more than Red or Blue, so purple has either 8 or 9 dogs. We also know that yellow and green have to be the same, therefore when we subtract the numbers the answer has to be even.
    1) 48-10-6-7-8=17
    2) 48-10-6-7-9=16
    So blue is 7 and purple is 9 because purple has 2 more dogs than blue.
    Orange 10 dogs
    Blue 7 dogs
    Yellow 8 dogs
    Green 8 dogs
    Red 6 dogs the lowest
    Purple 9 dogs
    Is this right?

    orange 10
    yellow 8
    green 8
    red 6
    blue 7
    purple 9
    48-10= 38 - 13=25-9=16 divide by 2 =8
