We Have a Winner!!!


Congratulations to Chris in 7-3 for correctly answering the Math Problem of the Week.  We had 10 students submit responses but only one correct response.  Incorrect answers included 144 eggs (two responses), 36 eggs (one response), 432 eggs (two responses), 12 eggs (three responses) and 134 eggs (one response).

In the spirit of math learning, I will let Chris explain to anyone who wants to know the answer how he got the correct response.  I really like seeing the work that some of you provided, as it shows the strategy you applied.  Some of you had the right idea, but a wrong application of the math.

Enjoy your pizza tomorrow, Chris!  Look for a new problem of the week tomorrow on the blog and in the front foyer.
