Youโre super excited for dinner tonight: ๐ณ๐๐ถ is on the menu! But oh no: ๐ณ๐๐ถ comes topped with ๐ถ๐๐ณ. You donโt want to hurt the chefโs feelings, so you sneak every bit of ๐ถ๐๐ณ off the plate and launch it into the sky on a ๐ถ๐ณ๐ถ hot air balloon. But ๐ถ๐๐ณ doesnโt fly far before a hungry seagull gobbles it up. Problem solved, dinner served!
Can you find 3 ๐ถ๐ณ๐ถ objects near you? Which item is largest?
If youโre at a restaurant sharing 10 plates of ๐ถ๐๐ณ with a seagull, how many different ways could you and the seagull sort those plates into 2 piles?ย
If there are twice as many ๐ถ๐๐ณ-topped cupcakes as ๐ณ๐๐ถ-topped ones, and there are 7 ๐ณ๐๐ถ-topped ones, how many ๐ถ๐๐ณ-topped cupcakes are there?
Youโre opening your own restaurant and order a big box of 72 onions! But 1/2 of the onions are ๐ถ๐ณ๐ถ โ that canโt 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 ๐ถ๐๐ณ every Wednesday this May. How many pounds does that add up to for the month?
ย
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 ๐ถ๐๐ณ-topped cupcakes.
36 onions.ย
22 1/2 pounds, because there are 5 Wednesdays in May this year.
