Using Decimals in the Real World: Presidential Inauguration Activities

Since the Presidential Election is quickly approaching, I thought I would put this practice into action.
In this activity, students will be given $1,000 in which they must use to pay for a three day - two night stay in Washington, DC in preparations for the Presidential Inauguration Activities.
