Art's Dime Store sells LOTS of penny candy (candy that costs only 1¢). The table below shows how much penny candy the store sold in the first four months of the year.

1. How much penny candy did the store sell in January and February altogether?
2. Explain your strategy for deciding if your answer is reasonable.
1. The store sold lots of candy in February because Valentine's Day is February 14. How much more penny candy did the store sell in February than in January?
2. Show how you can check your work to see if your answer is correct.
5. The biggest month for selling penny candy is October because Halloween is October 31. Art thinks that he will sell about as much candy in October as he did in March and April combined. About how much candy should Art order for October?

6. Write and solve your own problem about penny candy sales at Art's Dime Store.
