On this page, work with your partner in figuring out the answers to the questions. You may use the blocks if needed, otherwise, please show all work to get full credit.
1. Mr. Smith needs to heat his house this winter. The family will use 9 cords of wood. How much will 9 cords of wood cost if the price is $2.50 a cord?
2. In 1853, a cord of wood cost $2.50. In 1873 the same amount of wood was $4.00. What is the difference?
3. Molly Sue and her family live in the country far away from Winona. Once every 4 months, Molly’s father comes to Winona to buy wood for the family. The cost per cord is $4.00. What will the total cost be if he buys 4 cords of wood? What will Molly’s father pay for a year’s worth of wood?
