Which Sweet Hearts are the Best Deal?


 I have been doing a little shopping for Sweet Heart Candies. I came across these three deals online.  Which should I select?

In this activity students determine which package of Necco Sweet Heart Candies is the best deal.  Students are then asked to convince us using multiple methods or through tables or graphs.  Finally, we ask students to create their own Sweet Heart Candy deal that is not the best or worst deal compared to these three online deals.

For Adventurer members we have an editable Word docx and solutions as well as a Power Point slide show to begin the activity.

@Yummymath Great fun! Great real-life discussion! Fit perfectly with our study of Econ. Should have brought in candy hearts, though! #oops — Michelle U'Ren (@MURen1821)
