Students, here is a math challenge:
In many schools across the country, students run laps for exercise during recess or P.E. You have set a personal goal to run 100 miles in one year. If your school track is one-fifth mile, how many laps should you have to run to reach this goal for the year? On average, how many laps would you need to run each week to reach your goal of running 100 miles in one year?
When giving your answers, be sure to explain your thinking so others can understand your reasoning and learn how you came up with your answers. Remember this is a two-part question.
They grow up so fast!

Students,
Think of how you can break this problem down. What strategies could you use? Perhaps use a number line, draw a picture...
What is 1/5 of 100?
this is a great math problem. but im still trying to figure it out.

That's easy. A 1/5 of 100 is 20.
