Jessie won 3 times as many athletic awards as his buddy Scott, who won 4 awards. The best athlete at the rival high school won twice as many awards as Jessie. How many awards did the rival win?
Thoughts? Step-by-step reasoning:
User
Jessie won 3 times the amount of the 4 awards that Scott won so he won 3 * 4 = 12 awards. The rival athlete won twice the awards as Jessie, who won 12 so he won 2 * 12 = 24 awards.
Thus, the answer is 24.
