Today I visited an amusement park at a Web site! I pretended that I was at the amusement park with my friends. We bought tickets for different activities and figured out how much money we had left. Each activity cost 60 cents, so if Monica had 83 cents and she bought one ticket for the water game, she would have cents left.

You can find out more about this topic by asking your teacher or parents to show you other Web sites.
