When educators who are cat lovers love to pose creative math questions—and mathematical quickies or trickies—that center around their pets (or “masters of the house”), or are attracted by real-life word problems that embrace the feline family.
Two brain-unfriendly questions that exhibit mathematical purrfection are:
1. At a Cats’ Café, how many cute kittens are there if there are 9 more legs than tails?
2. Guesstimate the average cat bill at the veterinarian over her lifestyle.
