Children in grade three haven't learned equations yet, so I usually draw a line segment for him to analyze:
1. number of people: the number of apples eaten by each person 1 is of course equal to the number of people. You can tell the number of people by knowing how many apples * * * ate; Look at the picture, we know that after everyone ate 1, there were 1 apples left and two apples that everyone ate were missing, which is exactly the total number of apples that everyone got, which should be equal to the number of people. So the number of people: 1+2=3 (people)
2. Apples: 3+ 1=4 (pieces)
3. Each person can take 2 tests: 2*3-2=4 (each).
