Let's make some custom bricks just like Lynn! Imagine you're in a magical world where you can create your own special bricks. Lynn starts by taking 39 pounds of water and 48 pounds of brick dust. She pours them together in a big bucket. It's like when you mix water and flour to make dough for a tasty cookie!
Oh no! When Lynn was stirring the mixture excitedly, she accidentally spilled 13 pounds of it. Imagine if you were playing with your toys and accidentally knocked them off the table!
After mixing, Lynn pours the mixture into small holes in the dirt to shape them into bricks. Just like playing with sand on the beach and making sandcastles!
Each brick needs 7 pounds of the mixture. So, when Lynn fills up each hole with the mixture, she's creating a new brick while having lots of fun!
Once Lynn has made all the bricks, any leftover mixture is washed out of the bucket. It's like cleaning up your toys after playing and having a messy but fun time!
