Answer(or question to Mentor): I think the lightning is about 6 miles away. If it takes 5 seconds to travel 1 mile than it would travel about 6 miles after 32 seconds, because 5 seconds will go into 30 and since that’s about 32 it would be a little bit farter away than 6 miles.

This is a good start. Your thinking here is headed in the right direction. I am wondering why you decided to use the number 30 instead of 32, which was given. Where did that extra 2 go? Try this problem again using the number 32 this time. (Think about using a remainder and what a remainder means). I look forward to reading your revised response!

Your answer is exactly right! Can tell me what the remainder 2 stands for. As for the challenge questions, you have done a great job! Your answers are correct. Can you tell me why you used the numbers you did in solving the problems? Keep up the good work!
