Weekly Challenge
January 2-5, 2007

Pam is
practicing for a hockey tournament. She wants to skate 20 miles
next week. If she skates 2 miles each day (Monday, Tuesday,
Wednesday, Thursday, and Friday), how many miles does she need to skate
on Saturday and on Sunday if she wants to skate the same number of
miles each day on the weekend?
Show your work.
For 4th and 5th graders: Pam's team won the tournament described
above, and she is preparing for the championships at the end of the
month. If there are 3 weeks left to practice, how many miles does
she need to skate each day, if she plans to skate 105 miles altogether?
