Method:
Use keyboard arrow keys or tap your tablet/mobile to control the frog and catch the flies. Avoid the birds! Answer the math questions to win additional points.
Scoring is based on speed, flies caught and the number of correct answers.
4th grade / Measurements / Calculate & compare / Rectangles: how much bigger
To calculate the area of a rectangle, you multiply its width by its height. In this topic, you are asked to calculate the area of two rectangles and determine how much bigger the larger one is than the smaller one. To do so, you will need to calculate the area for both rectangles then subtract the smaller area from the larger. Your answer will be in units square.
Let's say you have 2 rectangles, one with dimensions of 5 m x 3 m and the other with dimensions 6 m x 4 m.
To calculate the area of the rectangles, multiply width by height.
The area of the first rectangle is:
Rectangle 1: Area = 5 m × 3 m = 15 m²
The area of the second rectangle is:
Rectangle 2: Area = 6 m × 4 m = 24 m²
The second rectangle has a bigger area than the first rectangle. The difference in area of the two rectangles is:
Difference in area = 24 m² - 15 m² = 9 m²
So, you can see that the second rectangle has an area 9 m² greater than the first rectangle.
This topic asks you to calculate the area of two rectangles and work out the difference in size. Your answers should be in square units such as square centimeters (cm²) or square meters (m²).
With our The frog flies math game you will be practicing the topic "Rectangles: how much bigger" from 4th grade / Measurements / Calculate & compare. The math in this game consists of 16 questions that ask you to compare areas of rectangles and say by how much one is bigger than the other.
Learn or revise math with our fun interactive game THE FROG FLIES! You are a happy hungry frog in the middle of the jungle in the middle of the night. Catch the flies for your supper (and practice math just for fun).
You can play the game on tablet/mobile or desktop computer. On handheld devices you move the frog by tapping where you want it to move to. On a computer, use the arrow keys on your keyboard to move.
Sometimes a big bird swoops through the forest catching unwary amphibians so stay alert and get out of the way of its beak!
Scoring is based on flies caught, questions answered and number of deaths by bird. Your final score is your total points minus your time in seconds.
