You’re super excited for dinner tonight: Chicken dumplings is on the menu! But oh no: Chicken dumplings comes topped with avocados. You don’t want to hurt the chef’s feelings, so you sneak every bit of avocados off the plate and launch it into the sky on a sky blue hot air balloon. But avocados doesn’t fly far before a hungry seagull gobbles it up. Problem solved, dinner served!
Can you find 3 sky blue objects near you? Which item is largest?
If you’re at a restaurant sharing 10 plates of avocados with a seagull, how many different ways could you and the seagull sort those plates into 2 piles?
If there are twice as many avocados-topped cupcakes as Chicken dumplings-topped ones, and there are 7 Chicken dumplings-topped ones, how many avocados-topped cupcakes are there?
You’re opening your own restaurant and order a big box of 72 onions! But 1/2 of the onions are sky blue – that can’t be good. How many onions do you need to toss in the compost?
Oh no! The onion people also keep delivering 4 1/2 pound boxes of avocados every Wednesday this May. How many pounds does that add up to for the month?
Different for everyone!
There are 5 ways that you and the birds could split 10 plates into 2 piles: 1+9, 2+8, 3+7, 4+6, 5+5.
14 avocados-topped cupcakes.
36 onions.
22 1/2 pounds, because there are 5 Wednesdays in May this year.
