Given window stickers for each car, students (grades 7–11) generate math problems that they would like to solve based on the data. Eventually they ask "Which car is the better value considering cost and fuel efficiency?" Finance math, units conversion, and generating linear equations are some of the tools used in the solution to the student-generated questions.
