Traveling with Ms. Ricard



 
Image result for tappan zee bridge
Hi friends!
We are currently on our way down to North Carolina. It says on our GPS that our whole trip will be a total of 803 miles. We are in New York and just went over the Tappan Zee bridge. The GPS (navigation system) says at this point we have traveled 214 miles so far. So if the total miles we have to travel is 803 miles...how many more miles do we have left to travel?
I look forward to hearing from you all!
From,
Ms. Ricard

  5. Dear Ms. Ricard,
    The children missed you very much today, but worked hard in math to learn more mental math strategies to solve complex subtraction problems. I KNOW they will enjoy your math challenge and I can't wait to "see" their mental math thinking. We can't wait for another challenge on Wednesday.
    Enjoy your trip to North Carolina,
    Mrs. Madden

    1. You have 589 miles to travel from the bridge to North Carolina.

      803 (miles for the entire trip) - 214 (the distance you have traveled) = 589 (miles left of the drive)

  11. Dear boys and girls,
    Please be sure to explain your thinking and label your answer...always remember "if there are words in your math problem, then there should be words in your answers." I'm sure we'll hear back from Ms. Richard soon.
    Mrs. Madden
