Answer 1

no but is int monopoly a math game with money and looking if you have enough money.

Answer 2

all of monoply is based around math. when u pass go u get 200 dollars and u can buy homes and such. also dice you roll them and count how many spaces u can go.

Answer 3

In older versions, the income tax was figuring 2% of everything you owned (including money) or pay $200. Also what everyone else has said about money, counting moves, etc.

Answer 4

You need to add and subtract. You need to know how to calculate percentages for the Income Tax square, and for un-mortgaging properties.

Answer 5

counting money and stuff is math but besides money stuff not really

Answer 6

Monopoly is a great game for learning Math there's:

Adding & Subtracting your money when you purchase properties or are paying rent on properties and very basic adding-up of the two dice you roll.

Working out percentages when you have to pay your income tax.

Probability- working out which of your properties you will put hotels on for the best chance of people landing on them and having to pay you rent.

Lots of Math......I know you probably hate homework but it sounds a bit more interesting than most homework.....good luck

Answer 7

sure, there's the accounting bit from figuring the money

but, there's also some probability involved. while you don't make any specific calculations here. understanding math helps to make a good guess as to if buying a house is worth it. basically the strategy of the game involved some mental math

Answer 8

yeah. when you count the money or give change.  

Answer 9

yes you have to count the money

Answer 10

Besides counting out the money and change, there's also the multiplication you have to do when you roll the dice to see how much rent you'll owe from landing on the utilities.
