What is 50 to 100?

"50 to 100 is like counting from your favorite number up to twice that number."

Imagine you have 50 marbles in a jar, that's the number of marbles you start with. Now, if someone gives you another 50 marbles, just like the first ones, you’ll now have 100 marbles total. So going from 50 to 100 is like doubling what you had before.

Counting Like You're Playing a Game

Think of it as climbing two stairs instead of one. If each stair has 50 steps, going up to the top means you’ve climbed 100 steps total, that’s how far you’ve gone!

Real Life Example: Sharing Candy

If your friend has 50 pieces of candy, and then they get another 50 pieces, just like magic (but not magically), they now have 100 candies. That's what it means to go from 50 to 100, you're just adding the same number to itself!
