Grade 4 · The Venture Year · Week 8

Cost and Price

Two different numbers that beginners mix up, and the gap between them is the business.

This game goes with week 8 of the workbook. Do the page first; the game is for seeing the numbers move. Nothing you type is kept.

Fill the gap

Lemonade is done for you: cost $0.35, price $1, gap $0.65.

Bracelet: cost $0.90, price $3. The gap$

Dog treat bag: cost $1.20, price $4. The gap$

Card: cost $0.45, gap $1.55. The price$

Price it yourself

Cookies cost you $0.40 each to bake. My price: $

The challenge

You could sell 10 bracelets at $5, or 30 at $2. Each one costs you $0.90.

The gap you keep: 10 at $5$ The gap you keep: 30 at $2$

There is a good argument for both. The page asks which you would choose and why.
