Estimation
We asked each of the contestants to estimate the distance Om Nom, who takes a road trip to visit each of the participating schools in alphabetical order, travels, in miles.
This is his itinerary: BASIS Independent Fremont, BASIS Independent Silicon Valley, Bullis Charter, Cabrillo Middle, Challenger Strawberry Park, John F. Kennedy Middle, Miller Middle, Peterson Middle, Quimby Oak Middle, Redwood Middle, Sierramont Middle, Stratford Fremont, Stratford San Jose, Stratford Preparatory Blackford, Harker Middle, King’s Academy, Union Middle, Valley Christian.
With an estimate of 181 miles, Boyan Han from Redwood Middle guessed the exact distance, with honorable mentions to Ashley Shen from Stratford Fremont and Fiona Wu from The King's Academy, who each guessed 180 miles.
