An Olympic Sized Pool and Lots of Pasta (Episode 2)
Part 2 of Olympic Pool Equivalence
Part 2 of Olympic Pool Equivalence
Students will figure out much pasta they can cook using the water in an olympic-sized pool.
Interestingly, there is no "official" volume of an olympic-sized pool! Students have to make a choice – how deep will their pool be. Likewise, there is no "official" amount of water needed per pound of pasta. Students get to choose what value they go with.
