Math Mission
Road Trip — Gas and Cost
🚗
Gas Math
You and two friends are driving 340 miles to go fishing for the weekend. Let's plan the gas.
Step 1 — Gallons needed
Your car gets 28 miles per gallon. Divide 340 by 28 to find how many gallons you need. Round to 1 decimal.
Step 2 — Gas cost
Gas is $3.49 per gallon. Multiply your gallons by $3.49.
Hint: Round to 2 decimal places.
Step 3 — Split three ways
Three people are sharing the cost. Divide the total gas cost by 3.
Math Mission
How Long Will It Take?
⏱️
Drive Time
Same road trip — 340 miles. Let's figure out the drive time and when you will arrive.
Step 1 — Drive time
You will average 60 mph on the highway. Divide 340 miles by 60 to get the drive time in hours. Round to 1 decimal.
Step 2 — Convert to hours and minutes
Your answer has a decimal. The whole number is the hours. Multiply the decimal part by 60 to get the minutes.
Hint: If your answer was 5.7, the decimal is 0.7. 0.7 x 60 = 42 minutes.
Step 3 — Arrival time
You leave at 8:00 AM. Add your hours and minutes to 8:00 AM. What time do you arrive? Enter as a number: 10:30 AM = 1030, 2:15 PM = 1415.
Hint: 5 hours 40 minutes after 8:00 AM = 1:40 PM = 1340.
Math Mission
Food Budget on the Road
🍔
Food Math
You budgeted $40 per person for food for the whole weekend. There are 3 of you.
Step 1 — Total food budget
Multiply $40 by 3 people.
Step 2 — What you've spent so far
So far: Breakfast stop: $31.47 | Lunch: $44.82 | Gas station snacks: $18.55. Add those up.
Step 3 — What's left?
Subtract what you've spent from your total budget. How much is left for dinner and tomorrow's meals?
Hint: Total budget minus total spent.
Math Mission
Splitting the Hotel Bill
🏨
Hotel Math
You are splitting two nights at a motel. Let's figure out what everyone owes.
Step 1 — Total room cost
The room costs $89 per night for 2 nights. What is the total room cost?
Step 2 — Add the hotel tax
Hotels charge a 12% lodging tax. Multiply your total by 1.12.
Hint: Room total x 1.12
Step 3 — Each person's share
Three people are splitting it evenly. Divide by 3. Round to the nearest cent.
