These Mini-Math Mysteries are different from my original Math Mystery Packets. They are designed as a condensed activity for a quick one-page practice of math skills. The elimination process is only based on answer matching with the images in this series. If you would like to try the other type of original Math Mysteries to see what’s included in those packets and the difference in design, please visit this FREE Multi-Grade Math Mystery Packet, The Case of the Super Bad Superhero.
