    If 1 ten frame is full and 1 ten frame is not: we could have 11,12,13,14,15,16,17,18 or 19, but not 20.

  2. Jade says 10 is the largest and 11 is the smallest

  3. Largest number is 19
    Smallest is 11

  4. 19 is the biggest
    11 is the smallest

  5. Smallest should be 10. Because there is no indication that any markers are on the second 10-frame. This same question is on here somewhere but with one 10-frame using its rows. This does cause a contradiction.

  6. I need help. This is a little unclear to my kindergarteners

  8. It is largest 19: smallest 11.
    1: You have the two fire trucks with 10 on each ladder( steps). The one counter has 10 and you have to add one counter( step) from the 2nd truck( 10+1=11).
    2: Because we used the 1 counter or step from the second fire truck that leaves 9 steps or counters left. So the largest would be 19 because 10 from the first truck, one from the second truck, and 9 left over from the second truck10+9=19).
    I pray you understand I figured it out.
    God Bless you
