Congratulation to Nour, Youssef, Ali, and Aya for answering the bonus question on the homework last night!  I wish more students would have at least tried to answer it because that is how you become better at math.  If you tried last night but did not quite get it right, that is fine.  Thanks for trying your best and never giving up!

The bonus question was-What number is larger 492 or 385.  Explain your answer.

Here is the correct answer:  The number 492 is greater than 385 because I looked in the hundreds place and 400 is bigger than 300.  Therefore, 492 is larger than 385.   Anything that is close would be acceptable but students must tell me that they looked in the hundreds place and what number is bigger.

Look for the next challenge question in the future and have a fantastic weekend!
