Title: FreeRice.com
Post by: Banjo Hick on January 18, 2010, 01:10:37 AM
Well in class yesterday we had extra time and we were told to go to FreeRice.com (http://freerice.com/index.php?&t=341360122760&s=Basic%20Math). I found out that each question you get right you donate 10 grains of rice to starving children in Africa. I was more concerned about my donation than my education and I was able to donate over 10,000 grains of rice in 20 minutes.

Well.. That sounds a little exagerated. o_O
I got about 100k in like 2 days over the weekend. Although, that was ALL I did. At all. XD
But I guess it isn't that hard, getting near 100grains per minute?

See what if no one went on this site, does that mean they would get no rice.
My opinion just give it too them  :-\

I was in the pre-algibra section so you can easily get 10 questions per minute. They just show the same problems so you don't have to think about them you can just remember them.

It goes where the World Food Program thinks it should go, which right now is Haiti.
