$3.50

Looking for a highly engaging finding the percent of markup and discount activity? This self-checking percent of increase and decrease game is unlike anything your students have seen before and includes an animated story with alternate endings!

In this Adventurous Joe activity, Joe loses his wallet in the middle of the ocean. Students must correctly solve the percent proportion problems to help Joe find his wallet!

Problem types include: Finding the original price, given the percent of markup or discount, finding the sale price/discount, and finding the percent.
