I would be willing to donate, but I am not sure that is what is going on here. My computer times out so fast that this has become very difficult.

I watched it with all my kids 11 and under. They were fine. I left a bawling mess!!!!!! :D

Okay, I see it. I am going to show this to her so she can see the extra steps. I like MM for the most part, but I do miss having a teachers manual. :D

I went ahead and purchased MM when it was recently on sale. Dd is in the 5th grade book and I am starting to wonder if she needs a calculator. Here was the problem: Mary jogs 7/12 miles each day, five days a week. Calculate how many miles she jogs in a 52-week year. Dd worked this problem by multiplying 5*7/12=35/12 then 52*35/12 then 1820/12 finally 151.6 miles in the year. The solutions manual has it as 7/12 × 5 × 52 = 151 2/3 miles I cannot figure out how MM works this problem. I see that the answers are very close, but I am struggling with explaining how this was worked to dd. Thanks.
