Anyway, perhaps looking at what they are doing might help


Do you havethe website?

I present this question a bit differently and it really sets up for the mistake.

You have a dime and a dollar, you buy a dog and a collar. The dog costs a dollar more. How much do each cost?

And you are right...most people answer incorrectly.

Math club sounds like a fun idea!
