Grades: 9-10

The student has inherited France and is now the ruler. France is too large to rule all at once, so dividing the kingdom into smaller territories among any 4 people they know will make ruling it easier. After deciding on how to divide the kingdom, they will need to write one paragraph to explain why they divided the kingdom in that way, compute the perimeter and area of each of the smaller territories as well as the population density, and justify mathematically that the smallest territory is at least one-third the size of the largest territory.
