Rube Goldberg-like contraptionsIs Your Car a Gas-Guzzler?

1. Using the automobile mileage data you started collecting as homework for Workshop 1, record on a blackboard

or an overhead transparency the total miles per gallon for each vehicle in the group.

I am not in a group. Does anyone want to share with me their findings?

        My 1990 Honda Accord total miles per gallon = 28

2. Compare the mileage for different cars. Which car was the most fuel-efficient? Which was the least fuelefficient?

3. What do the fuel-efficient cars have in common?

4. What do the less fuel-efficient cars have in common?
