Compatible Word problems

 Kia Ora 

We have been learning about how to use Compatible Numbers. Compatible Numbers are any two numbers which add together to make a Tidy Number 

(a  number which ends in zero).  We had to choose two Compatible Numbers and another number. Then we had to think of a word problem which used our numbers and give the problem to a buddy to solve. Mrs Ogle, our maths facilitator, said this is called 'posing problems'. Here is my problem 32+54+18= Max shaved his head 54 times Auto shaved his head 32 times and Shank shaved his head 18 times. How many times did they shave all together.
