For the Birds

By Ruth Schiefen

Lisa had $3.50 to spend on supplies for her bird feeder. She bought a box of oatmeal for 70¢, sunflower seeds at 80¢ a pound, and suet from the butcher for $2.00. When she got home, she still had 40¢. How can that be?

Answer:

  • Lisa bought only a half pound of sunflower seeds.
