How would you like to vacation with me on that
island? I can get us a great deal! The only thing we
need to do is to earn some money, are you ready to get started?
Sure Let’s Go!
I am so glad you said yes! Now the issue of money, the only way for us to earn money is to
challenge some of my old friends to some math problems. There are three opportunities to earn money per opponent. Please take your time and double check your work so that we
can earn enough money for both of us to go on vacation!
