CREATIVE ACTIVITY

Aim: Identifying formula
Material: School Calendar
Steps:
1. Students carry out the activity in pairs.
2. Calculate the amount of money that can be saved from the following situations (assume

that the calculation starts from first to the last day of each month).

Situation 1
Badrul is a form 2 student who likes to save. On each school day, he receives RM5 as his
pocket money and spends RM4.50. What is the amount of Badrul’s savings in January?

Situation 2
Sedthu saves RM15 per month. If he receives RM10 as pocket money, calculate Sedthu’s
expenditure for one day in April.

3. State the method of calculating the savings.

From the situations above, write an equation for the total savings in relation to pocket money,
money spent and to the number of days using basic mathematical operations to get the total amount
of savings. Pocket money, money spent and number of days are variables. You can determine the
amount saved by changing the value of the variables.

WALKING
THROUGH TIME
A circle is a curved pathway locus of a point
that is equidistant from a fixed point. This
fixed point is known as the centre and the
distance from this fixed point to the pathway
is called the radius. A circle is also a curve that
is joined which is known as circumference.
A mathematician named Euclid was the first
person to study circles. He is also known as the
‘Father of Geometry’ due to his research.
