The Disappearing Dollar

Three friends have a meal in a restaurant and they are charged $25.  They each chip in with a $10 bill and hand it to the waiter.  The waiter, though, isn't very good at math (like dividing the $5 change by 3), so he keeps $2 as a tip and hands each friend $1. 

Cells Anyone?

Armed with boxes of sidewalk chalk Mr. Hallam's Biology classes went outside of the school to draw cell structures. This is something that his classes do every year, and it gives his students a large canvas to show off what they have learned.

Running For the Pack—Lobo Cross Country

Submitted by david.thacker on Fri, 09/19/2014 - 16:06

On September 12, 2014, the Lobo X-County team hopped on a bus and took a trip across the valley race against Diamond Fork, Mt. Nebo, and Mapleton Junior Highs.  A big thank you goes out to Mapleton for hosing this event.

This is a rebuilding year for both the Lobe girls’ and boys’ teams.  Many of our fastest 9th grade runners are racing for Spanish Fork High.  While this might be seen as handicap in leadership, it brings with it the opportunity for more 7th and 8th graders to participate.

Diggin' Dinosaurs Answer:

Because the second part of the question asked you to tell when they should go, it allows you to go 8 times in the same month.  Therefore, the best plan is B at $15.00.
