  1. I knew that 7+42=49 and 49-11=38, 38+12=50, 50+33=83 83+10=93 and 93+3=96. So Robert had 96 stones. If he got 4 stones on the next day he would have 100 stones.

  4. I worked out there were 96 stones.
    First I did was 42 + 7=49 - 11=38 + 12=50 + 33=83 + 10=93 + 3=96
    So if Robert got 35 more he would have 131.

  5. So I knew that 42+7=49 and 49-11=38 so 38+12=50 and then 50+33=83, 83+10=93. The last number is 3 so 93 plus 3 equals 96.

    If Robert has 96 stones and if he got 4 stones on the next day. Robert will have 100 stones, (a lot of stones).

  6. I know that 42+7= 49, 49+12=61, 61+33=94, 94 +10=104, 104+3=107, 107-11=96. Robert has 96 stones. If he finds 10 stones he will have 106.

  7. First I had to read the question then I started working it out
    7 + 42 = 49 - 11 = 38 + 12 + 33 + 10 + 3 =96
    And that is how I got it and how I got the answer.
    Then Robert got 10 more the next day and now he got 106 all together.

  11. I did 7+42 =49 If he has 96 stones. And he add 44 more stones he would have 134.
    49-11 = 38
    38 +12 =50
    50 +30 =83
    83+10 = 93
    and 93 +3 =96.
