1. No It`s not fair. 
2. No it`s still not fair even the proportion disagrees. 

3. The reason why it is not fair is because that homeless man got sent to prison for 15 years for stealing a 100 dollar bill which he gave back. While the other guy the Ex-Ceo who stole 3 Billion Dollars only went to prison for 40 months which is about 3 years.

4. If I was the judge I would sent the Ex-Ceo to 47 years and one month of imprisonment because I researched about this guy named Allen Stanford and he stole 7billion dollars and got imprisoned for 110 years. So then I divided 110 by 7 which equaled around 15.7years. Then I multiplied it by 3 to get 47.1 years and 3 billion dollars. Also I would send the homeless man to around 1-3 months of imprisonment because all he was that he stole a 100 dollar bill then he gave it back afterwards. But what the homeless man did I think was attempted Robbery





Bonus Question







Question:
How tall is the tree on the left?

Answer:
or approximately The guy is Canadian because he is walking in Assiniboine Park. The average height of a Canadian is 6 ft so then I multiplied him by 3. So then I got 6*3= 18 ft. So the tree would be 18 ft tall
