1. The high temperature on Monday was 35°F and the low was 18°F. On Tuesday the high was 29°F and the low was 10°F. Which day had a greater temperature range? Show your work.
Monday's range: 35 − 18 = 17 degrees. Tuesday's range: 29 − 10 = 19 degrees. Tuesday had a greater temperature range.
2. A family drives 180 miles to a ski resort. They stop halfway for lunch. How far is each half of the trip? If the second half takes 2 hours, what is their average speed?
Each half is 180 ÷ 2 = 90 miles. Average speed for the second half: 90 ÷ 2 = 45 miles per hour.
