Solutions & Steps
1 Relocation Decimals (Division)
Problem: \(142.8 \div 42\)
Answer: 3.4 hours (or 3 hours 24 minutes). Steps: \(142.8 \div 42 = 3.4\). Check: \(42 \times 3.4 = 142.8\).
2 Biometric Security Decimals (Multiplication)
Problem: \(18.45 \times 3.6\)
Answer: 66.42 Steps: Multiply whole numbers: \(1845 \times 36 = 66420\). 3 decimal places gives \(66.42\).
3 Mega Jerry's Crate Volume (Geometry)
Problem: \(12 \text{ ft} \times 8.5 \text{ ft} \times 7 \text{ ft}\)
Answer: 714 \(\text{ft}^3\) Steps: \(12 \times 8.5 = 102\). Then \(102 \times 7 = 714\) cubic feet.
4 Mega Mel's Laser Power (Fraction of Whole)
Problem: \(\frac{3}{8}\) of \(360 \text{ megawatts}\)
Answer: 135 megawatts Steps: Divide: \(360 \div 8 = 45\). Multiply: \(45 \times 3 = 135\) MW.

Part 2: Comprehension Analysis & Pacing Tips
Debrief 1: Maxime's Rivalry & Family Dynamic
• Q1 (Rivalry): Maxime Le Mal hates Gru because Gru stole his talent show song ("Karma Chameleon") in high school. This escalated into an ongoing vendetta where Maxime builds cockroach suits and hybrid serum to target Gru.
• Gru Jr. loves his mother but reacts to Gru with funny coldness/hostility, creating a key parenting plot conflict as Gru struggles to connect with him.
