Too wide open. What should your child be expected to use or handle involving such a number? Try to pick something dealing with money - but that is only a suggestion.

What kinds of realistic applications is your child supposed to know now? High schooler with some science background? Done much with money?

Dave paid $1,000 for his new apartment in 2012. Now he's paying $1,420. How much more is he paying now?
