Question: Wilson decides to go sledding on some nearby hills. On the 2 tall hills, he sleds down them 4 times each and on the 3 small hills, he sled down them half as often as he sleds down the tall hills. How many times did he sled down the hills? Think carefully first, then make a decision:

On the tall hills, he sleds down 2 tall hills * 4 times per tall hill = 8 times. He sleds down the small hills half as often so he sleds down each hill 4 times per tall hill / 2 = 2 times per small hill. On the small hills, he sleds down 3 small hills * 2 times per small hill = 6 times. So in total, Wilson sled down the hills 8 times on tall hills + 6 times on small hills = 14 times. So the answer is 14.
