Activity 3: Flying Fungi [10 points]

On your blog, tell us how you would solve this tricky maths problem. Be sure to also post your final answer in days or weeks.

I think it would take atleast 35 days or 5 week's. How I got my answer's was I went

5 x7=35. After that I divided 35 days with 7 because there are 7 days in a week and it

= 5.

So this is the answer 35 day's or 5 Week's
