Task Instructions
- Each player takes turns rolling the two dice. Markers are placed at zero.
- Player 1 may choose to calculate the sum, difference, product or quotient of the two numbers displayed on the dice.
- Player 1 then moves their marker to that number on the chart.
- Player 2 takes their turn.
- For player 1’s second turn they determine the sum, difference, product or quotient. This number is then added to the number under their marker and the marker is moved to this sum.
- Play ends when one player reaches one hundred.
- If a player rolls and computes a number that cannot be added to the last number without going over 100 they lose their turn.
- If player 1 reaches 100 first, player 2 finishes the round to see if they can tie the game.
Variation
Players can choose to include negative number achieved through taking the difference of two numbers where the number subtracted is greater than the starting number.
