  5. On some days, five grandchildren come for a visit.

  6. On very special days, all six grandchildren come for a visit!

  7. To prepare for her grandchildren's visit, Grandma bakes a delicious chocolate cake with strawberry and custard icing.

Record your solution in your notebook and justify your thinking using words, visual, and/or numbers.
