Lots of Pieces – Number Problem

We’ve been trying to organize our stuff. Brian has a lot of puzzles!

What do you notice and wonder?

• “I notice that there are hundreds of pieces in the picture.”
• “Does Brian like puzzles?”
• “If there are 13 puzzles, how much money did they cost?”
• “How old is Brian?​”
• “There are numbers on the puzzles so you can see how many pieces there are.”

How many puzzle pieces do I have all together? Just take a guess!

Now, do the math to find an exact answer.

What are some strategies or different ways to add this up, to make it easier to find the total?
