    “You can’t touch it but you can control it” Me: Feelings The fishing rod one is wrong. While the fishing rod can fit in the box that is 3 feet on each side, the fishing rod is still longer than 3 feet, thus breaking the rules.

  • 9:18 i learned it this way: we put a 1 as the denominator of 30, representing it as a whole like this 30/1 divided by 1/2 then we flip 1/2 to 2/1 and turn the division to multiplication 30/1 x 2/1 so it’s just 30 x 2 + 10 30 x 2 = 60 + 10 = 70
