Quiz Answer Key and Fun Facts
1. Zac and Jesse's family drove to the beach. They knew the trip would take 9 hours. They stopped for lunch after 3 hours. How much longer would they be driving after lunch?

Answer: 6 hours

Nine minus three is six. The family had to leave home early in the morning to arrive by bedtime. Luckily they had a DVD player in the family van.
2. Speaking of DVDs, the family collection consists of 18 DVDs which last 30 minutes each. Remember that the trip will take 9 hours. If Zac and Jesse divide the ride time evenly between each DVD, how many DVDs can _each_ boy choose so that all of their choices can be watched during the journey?

Answer: 9

Each hour has 60 minutes so the boys can each have one DVD in their half of the 9 hour trip. Jesse loves "Star Trek". When it is his turn he always picks the same DVD even though the rest of the family is sick of it.
3. Jesse and Zac brought their dog Isabel on the trip. Isabel keeps hiding her dog biscuits under the seat instead of eating them. If they started with a new box of ten dog biscuits and only two are left in the box, how many biscuits did Isabel hide?

Answer: 8

Eight biscuits must be under the seat if only two are left in the box as 10-2 = 8. Isabel prefers leftover hamburger bun from lunch to her dog biscuits.
4. The family van has eight seats. If there are four people riding in the van, how many seats are not being used?

Answer: 4

There are four empty seats since the others are occupied by a family of four. The dog Isabel rides in her crate in the back of the van with the luggage.
5. Zac and Jesse have a musical family. They have packed two guitars, a recorder, an electric keyboard and an African drum. How many instruments are in the van?

Answer: 5

There are five instruments in the van. The family will have a sing-along campfire at the beach before they return home.
6. The cash toll on the George Washington Bridge is $12.00. If Daddy pays with a $20 bill, how much change will he receive?

Answer: $8

When the toll taker sees the $20, she has $8 in change ready to hand the driver: $20-$12 = $8. On the ride home, the westbound toll is free.
7. Elliott and Bodhi took an airplane to get to the beach. The security guard at the airport dropped Elliott's backpack while checking it and half of his Matchbox cars rolled away. If Elliott had 8 cars when he left home, how many were left?

Answer: 4

Only four cars were left: one half of 8 = 4. The security man was apologetic, but due to the flight time Elliott could not wait around for them to track down the four missing cars.
8. When they arrived breathlessly at the gate, they heard the agent announce that the flight would take off two hours late due to mechanical problems. If the original scheduled departure was noon, what was the new departure time?

Answer: 2:00 pm

2:00 pm was the new scheduled departure time. Elliott was the only person happy about the delay. It gave him time to go back to the security check point and retrieve his Matchbox cars.
9. When they arrived in New York, Elliott and family went to the baggage claim. Daddy had two suitcases, Mama had two suitcases, Elliott had one suitcase, and Bodhi had a suitcase and car seat checked. How many pieces of checked baggage did they pile onto the SmartCarte?

Answer: 7

Six suitcases plus a car seat equals seven things to claim. It's a good thing the family had rented a van to drive to the beach!
10. Elliott and Bodhi were excited to see their cousins Zac and Jesse when they got to the beach house. Grammy and Popsie asked the boys to set the table for dinner. There were four boys, four parents, and two grandparents hungry for dinner. How many plates did they need to set for dinner?

Answer: 10

There were ten people at the cottage for dinner. Two families of two boys and two parents plus the two grandparents had dinner together at the beach. It was special to talk around the table rather than keeping in touch with phone calls and emails.
