Students will practice finding tax, tip, commission, and discount on totals. They can mark off bingo numbers on their board as a result of answering correctly. You can use popsicle sticks to call out numbers or choose them randomly (#'s 1-24) Virtual Bingo boards (unique for each student): https://mfbc.us/m/bf7cq8j This activity includes finding totals including tax and tip as well as compound problems with total including tax & tip or total including discount & tax

Students walk around the room and calculate unit rates. Based on the unit rates, they will be able to figure out which is the better buy. I like the have a discussion with students about how the "better buy" is not always solely based on unit price. We like to have a class discussion about how there are some other factors that may play a role in our purchasing habits such as quality, conveince, etc...

Use these stations to allow your students to practice finding tax, tip, and discount. NO TOTALS. They can complete these problems in any order they want. I have attached the Google Doc so that you can edit how you see fit.
