Yeah! Think how much more fun we would have had with math if they had taught us some practical "make something using it" lessons, instead of those AWFUL, pointless story problems <g>.
SALUTE to all of you who figured out how to come up with 7/8 of a yard ... I get all weirded out with tenths of a foot, too ... all I can figure is: someone who is asking for tenths of a foot don 't really know how big a foot is, anyway. I LOVE math because it does make good sense, but ONLY to a point <g>
