When solving 2.5 x 10 to the 3rd power, explain the pattern in the placement of the decimal point.  

The exponent indicates how many places the decimal point is moving.  The operation indicates which direction the decimal will move.  In this case we are multiplying, so the decimal moves to the right.  (If it were dividing it would move to the left)

Cameron and Kellen each have a lemon.  They need a cup of lemon juice to make hummus for a party.  Cameron squeezes 1/2 a cup from his and Kellen squeezes 2/5 of a cup from his.  How much lemon juice do they have?  Is it enough?

There is almost but not quite one cup of lemon juice because 2/5 < 1/2.  1/2 + 2/5 = 9/10.  This is 1/10 less than 1, which is probably a small enough shortfall that it will not ruin the recipe.

Daily Double Bonus NSF Question: Mrs. Bennett is planting two flower beds.  The first flower bed is 5 meters long and 2/5 meters wide.  The second flower bed is 5 meters long and 5/6 meters wide.  How do the areas of these two flower beds compare?  Is the value of the area larger or smaller than 5 square centimeters?  Draw pictures to prove your answers.

First flower bed = 2 meters squared

Second flower bed = 4 1/6 meters squared

The value of the area is smaller in both.

Two after school clubs are having pizza parties.  For the Math Club, the teacher will order 3 pizzas for every 5 students.  For the student council, the teacher will order 5 pizzas for every 8 students.  Since you are in both groups, you need to decide which part to attend.  How much pizza would you get at each party?  If you want to have the most pizza, which party should you attend?  

Math Club = 1 2/3

Student Council = 1 3/5

Math Club will be more pizza = 1 10/15

Student Council would be 1 9/15
