How Many Guinea Pigs Can Fit on a Plane?

Answers to Your Most Clever Math Questions

Written by Laura Overdeck

This book takes fun and unusual questions from children and helps them answer those questions through math. The beginning of the book explains a few basic math principles, such as what is pi or a diameter. The bulk of the book answers the questions, starting with the question in the title. The reader will not only learn the answers to questions like, “How many spiders are there in the whole world?,” (hold onto your hat…it’s 19 quadrillion!), but he or she will also learn the math principles to answering each question – from multiplication, finding the radius, etc. This book really makes math cool. I highly recommend this book for all ages.
