Math Instructor vs. Red Crayon (its all about data!!!!!)



So i asked myself the question, "how long could i color, without stopping, before i would run out of crayon". Well, and hour and six min's later we have this work of genius :)

  1. OMG and LOL I can't believe you did it. This is great definitely will repeat with the kids. A good way to learn to hypothesize and use a simple experiment to find the results. Thanks again!

  2. Thanks! You could shorten the time by cutting the crayon in half. You could always use this information to extrapolate how long different size crayon boxes would last the student
