[Go Back To Mrs. Pacharko]

Customer #1- MRS. ADLER

Mrs. Adler: Hello, my name is Carrie Adler and I have five children. My husband Kenneth, the children, and I are taking a trip to Orlando, Florida to stay four nights and three days. Please add up our totals correctly! We have to make sure five kids get their bags packed correctly!

STEP ONE- Hotel-

  • Hotel- Nickelodeon Hotel- We decided to book an awesome, large hotel for us and the kids to stay in. There are gigantic family suites, and maybe this will save money for seven people in the long run!

    [When you go in, put August 1st in as the check-in date and August 5th as the check-out date. Then click so it says 2 adults, 5 children, and 2 rooms. When you click on CHECK AVAILABILITY, you'll see a price under the first available room. This is the room Mrs. Adler wants. Then add that number together four times to see how much it would be to stay for four nights.]

    STEP TWO- ATTRACTIONS-

  • Sea World- [Adult- $53.75] [Child- $43.00]

  • Carrie and Kenneth will be charged as adults.
  • Their three oldest children- Megan (17), Sarah (14), and Joshua (10) will also be charged as adults because they are over 10 years old.
  • Their two youngest children- Nicholas (8) and Michael (5) will be charged as children because they are between the ages of 3-9.

    STEP THREE- How Many Hours Will She Be Driving?-
    The Adlers are driving from Fort Myers, Florida, which is 156 miles from Orlando. If 60 minutes are in an hour, how many hours will they be driving to get to Orlando?

    STEP FOUR- ON YOUR SHEET-

  • Add together the price of the hotel and one main attraction to see how much Mrs. Adler is spending in Orlando.
  • Make sure you write down how many hours the Adlers are driving to get to Orlando.

    NOW YOU ARE DONE!
