Shopping Time!

NATALIE:
We are lucky to have a supermarket in the building. This is the flyer that expires later this month. Your challenge is:
1) pick 4 things that you are not familiar with (look at the veggies)
2) how much is each item in CAD?
3) see if you can use google translate to see what each is.
4) pick one thing, ask for some money and go purchase it. We can all try it.



**************************************************************************************************************************

1 Su su = chayote
Oi Viet Nam = oh viet Nam
Bau =vote
Quyt duong = tangerine sugar
2 Sadly the flyer did not have the the prices for the veggies. 4 today in the grocery store I was looking in the veggie section when I saw Su su we bought one for the family to try.

After that we used multiplication to figure out the answer. We figured out that 4 laps around the building =1 km. 4. What information did we use that we already knew The information we used was that we made a ruler out of a piece of paper and we measured the floorboards and then we multiplied that number with 39370.1 (the number of inches in 1km) and we got our...
