Party Planner Project:
In my party planning project, I had to make tree diagrams to show the choice’s everyone at the party could end up choosing, the counting principal in how many options there was, and find the total price of everything. This project helped with planning prom because it broke everything down. Prom is planning a party and with this breakdown of the math aspect of the planning, it made it much easier for me and others to understand what goes into the process of planning prom.
