Bonus Money Challenge

The first Weekly Bonus Money Challenge!

Each week I'll be posting at least one Bonus Money Challenge, which is a special assignment you can do for homework to earn some Bonus Money.

Today's challenge - How Much Farther?

Choose a city in the United States and two other destination cities in the United States. Use the Internet to find distances between the starting and ending cities.

For example, Jacksonville to Detroit & Jacksonville to Nashville.

Search on Google: "distance between ______ and ________"

Then, find the DIFFERENCE between the two distances using one of our subtraction strategies.

Complete AT LEAST three sets of cities to earn $100 in Bonus Money.

Another Bonus Money Challenge will be posted this weekend!
