  • 100 points: Ricardo had football practice from 5:30 to 8:15. How much time did he spend at practice?
  • 100: 2 hours 45 minutes (5:30 → 8:15)
100
  • 100 points: The gym ordered 5 boxes of bean bags. Each box has 8 bean bags. There are 4 teams who share the bean bags equally. How many bean bags does each team get?
  • 100: 5 × 8 = 40 total; 40 ÷ 4 = 10 per team → 10 bean bags each


100
  • 100 points: Which clock shows 3:02? (Choose A, B, C or D based on the clock drawings.) Explain why.
  • 100: Clock D shows 3:02 (minute hand at 2 minutes after 12, hour hand just past 3).


100
  • 100 points: From the bar graph: Cat = 12, Dog ≈ 17, Fish ≈ 3, Bird = 6. How many fewer students voted for Bird than Cat?
  • 100: Cat 12 vs Bird 6 → 6 fewer students


200
  • 200 points: Michelle arrived at the playground at 7:45. The bell rings at 8:15. How many minutes did she have to play?
  • 200: 30 minutes (7:45 → 8:15)
200
  • 200 points: Jordan’s cooking class: 6 students, each student has 3 bags, each bag has 5 tortillas. Write an equation to find the total number of tortillas and solve.

    • 200: T = 6 × 3 × 5; T = 90 tortillas
200
  • 200 points: Estimate to the nearest quarter hour the time shown on a clock whose hour hand is between 8 and 9, closer to 9. Which choice is best: 8:45, 8:30, 7:45, or 8:15? Explain reasoning.
  • 200: Best estimate is 8:45 (hour hand between 8 and 9, closer to 9 → quarter to 9).


200
  • 200 points: From the bar graph: Cat = 12, Dog ≈ 17, Fish ≈ 3, Bird = 6. How many fewer students voted for Birds than Cat and Dog Combined?
  • 200: Cat + Dog = 12 + 17 = 29; 29 − 6 = 23 fewer for Bird than Cat and Dog combined → Bird has 23 fewer than Cat+Dog
300
  • 300 points: Lien left home at 7:30. She walked 15 minutes to the bus stop, waited 10 minutes, and rode the bus 20 minutes. At what time did she arrive at school?
  • 300: 8:15 + 15 + 10 + 20 from 7:30 → 8:15 a.m. (Lien arrives at 8:15)


300
  • 300 points: Tyreke gathered 81 boxes of rice and put them on 9 tables. Then each table’s boxes are sorted into 3 bins. Which sequence of operations finds how many boxes are in each bin? Show the correct equation.
  • 300: 8:15 + 15 + 10 + 20 from 7:30 → 8:15 a.m. (Lien arrives at 8:15)


300
  • 300 points: Use a number line to show a starting time of 4:15 and add the intervals 5, 10, 10, and 5 minutes. What time do you end at? (Students must draw or explain with increments.)
  • 300: 4:15 + 5 = 4:20; +10 = 4:30; +10 = 4:40; +5 = 4:45 → 4:50 if including all four segments summing to 35 minutes; confirm with student steps.

  • 300 points: Ms. Casto’s picture graph shows: Brown = 5 symbols, Blue = 3 symbols, Green = 7 symbols, and 1 symbol = 3 students. How many students are represented by each eye color? Then answer: How many fewer students had blue eyes than brown and green combined?
  • 300: Brown = 5×3=155×3=15 students; Blue = 3×3=93×3=9 students; Green = 7×3=217×3=21 students. Blue vs Brown+Green: Brown+Green = 15+21=3615+21=36; 36 − 9 = 27 fewer.
400
  • 400 points: Mya started biking at 4:15 p.m. She biked slow 5 minutes, medium 10 minutes, fast 10 minutes, then slow 5 minutes to cool down. What time did she stop? (Show your time-line or number-line work.)
  • 400: 4:15 + 5 + 10 + 10 + 5 = 35 minutes → stops at 4:50 (Note: check student work; some choices may approximate)
400
  • 400 points: A set of cards has 8 different shapes and each shape comes in 3 colors. The cards are dealt equally so each friend gets 6 cards with none left over. Which equation can be solved to find the number of friends? Then solve for number of friends.
  • 400: Total cards = 8 × 3 = 24 cards. Let n = number of friends. 24 ÷ n = 6 so n = 4 friends. Best matching equation: 8 × 3 ÷ n = 6 → solve n = 4
400
  • 400 points: Convert these time intervals into minutes total and explain: slow 5 min + medium 10 min + fast 10 min + slow 5 min = ? minutes. Then add to a start time of 4:15.
  • 400: Total minutes: 5+10+10+5=305+10+10+5=30 minutes. Add to 4:154:15 → 4:454:45. (If students counted differently, check work.)

  • 500 points: A class field trip had 135 third graders and 123 fourth graders signed up. On the day of the trip, 9 students were absent. Write an equation and find the total number of students who went on the trip.
  • 500: 135 + 123 − 9 = 249 students
500
  • 500 points: A worker has 250 nails, uses 32 for cabinets and 54 to hang them. Write a number sentence for n, the nails left, and find n.

    • 500: n = 250 − 32 − 54 → n = 164 nails


500
  • 400: A student practiced piano for a total of 1 hour and 20 minutes. She started at 3:10 p.m. Draw a number line (or show your steps) that breaks the time into these increments: 10 minutes, 30 minutes, 30 minutes, and the remaining minutes. What time did she finish? Show the number-line jumps and the final time.

 Start at 3:103:10. Add 1010 → 3:203:20; add 3030 → 3:503:50; add 3030 → 4:204:20; remaining minutes to reach total of 1 hour 20 minutes=80 minutes1 hour 20 minutes=80 minutes have already been used (10+30+30 = 70), so add last 1010 → finish at 4:304:30.
