Question: Matt buys a massager. At the lowest setting, it vibrates at 1600 vibrations per second. At the highest setting, it vibrates 60% faster. Matt uses it for 5 minutes at the highest setting. How many vibrations does he experience? Think carefully first, then make a decision:

At the highest setting, it vibrates 1600 * .6 = 960 vibrations per second faster than the lowest setting. So it vibrates at 1600 + 960 = 2560 vibrations per second. Matt uses it for 5 minutes so that is 5 * 60 = 300 seconds. That means he experienced 2560 * 300 = 768,000 vibrations. So the answer is 768000.
