These questions require precision. Award full points only if the unit of measurement is correct (e.g., "sq ft" or "gallons"). If a team misses a step, encourage a "Challenge Replay" where another team explains the error.
The 500-point Boss Challenge involves multiple divisions and subtractions. Give teams a full 5 minutes and encourage them to use the Think Big area on their Record Sheets.
