Monarch
Math: Solution
Question:
If
each paper butterfly carried an equal amount of conservation money to
Mexico how much would each of the 65,565 butterflies
carry?
Solution:
We sent 65,565 symbolic butterflies to Mexico along with $13,924
for conservation work. To solve: Divide 13,924 by 65,565.
This equals 21.23 cents.

This!
Each little paper ambassador symbolically
carried with it about a 21¢ contribution on its journey south!
