Malia Mendiola:
How many times did Max jump in the twenty minutes?
Initial thoughts on the problem
-I can simply count how many times he jumps, it should be easy.
-Video 1: 10 jumps (10seconds) 1 jump per second
-Video 2: 9 jumps (7seconds) 1.3 jumps per second
-20 minutes...60sec x 20min = 1,200 seconds
-1,200 x 1.3 = 1,543
What information is helpful? What would have been more helpful for estimating?
-The video was helpful, but I wish it had some fun music.
- Malia's disclaimer eased my stress about answering wrong
What is your estimate and why are you confident it is reasonable?
At the most be jumped 1,543 jumps in 20 minutes, but he likely got tired over time.

Jack Walker:
How many animal crackers are in the bin?
I don't know if I'll answer it correctly...
4inx 5.5in = 22in
1in x 1.25in = 1.25
The dimensions were helpful, I feel like I should've have received one more dimension for the container though.
My answer is 18... I believe I am wrong.

Saline Brice:
How many weeks will my bottle of fingernail polish last?
1,000 ÷ 1dip x 10 nails x 1week = 100 weeks
Initially I figured I can easily answer, and also apply this to how long my nail polish should last.

How much room is left for water when it is already filled to the top with ice?
Ice...2.5in x 0.5in = 0.125
Glass...2.5 x 6in = 15
I'm not sure of the formula of how to measure an odd shape such as a cylindrical yet widening glass and ice that is not a cube.
My guess would be 120ox, but I am not confident in my answer.

If 2 cups of flour gives you 7 cookies, how many cookies can you make with a bucket of flour?
14.5 x 13 x 13 =2450.5in
I'm not sure how to convert inches in cups.
306.25cups... That will make 44 cookies.
