Apple Math

Everyone in the class receives one apple:

Don't eat your apple yet!

Using a scale, find the mass of your apple in grams.

Record the mass of your apple and the masses of your classmates' apples.

What is the greatest mass? What is the least mass? What is the difference between the greatest mass and the least mass? What is the mean mass?

Measure the circumference of your apple in centimeters. (Tip: Use a string!) Record this information. Collect data from your classmates about the circumferences of their apples. Is circumference related to mass? Create a graph to illustrate this relationship.

Now you can eat your apple!
