SHARING MONEY
Day 1
At school, 4 students found an envelope. Inside was a $5 bill. They took the envelope to the principal. A week went by and nobody claimed it. The principal returned the money to the
children and said that it now belonged to them.
How would
you divide $5 so that each of the students got the same amount of money?
1. First,
think about what you could do.
- How
could you begin?
- What
could you do next?
2. After
you have divided the money, count each person’s share. Did each one get the same amount?
3. Explain
your answer by telling how you divided the $5 equally among the 4 students.
4. Now
make up your own problem for dividing an amount of money equally among 4 or 5 students.
