Ready for some questions in Math? There are three age categories of questions today. Be sure to email the answers to me at thogate@thehomeschoolmagazine.com.
Correct answers will be entered into our drawings at the end of the month. We will be giving away two gift certificates to the Schoolhouse Store.

Okay, here are your questions:
- Elementary (Grades 1-5) If there are 16 telephone poles in a straight line, each pole 80 meters apart, how far is it from the first pole to the last?
- Middle Grades (Grades 6-8) If you have 40 coins, composed only of nickels and dimes, and worth a total of $2.25, how many nickels do you have?
- High school and adults: This question, according to its grouping or parentheses, can have different answers. What is the largest possible answer to the problem: "What is half of ten plus two times six."
Alrighty, email me your answers. Also on the email, I will need your name, age, state you live in, and email address. I'm looking forward to hearing from you!
