[Question]Walter fell from the eighth platform of some scaffolding and fell past David after falling 4 meters. If he fell for an additional three more times that depth before hitting the ground, and the platforms are evenly spaced out in height, what platform was David on?
[Answer]Walter fell 4 meters and an additional three times that depth which is 3 * 4 = 12 meters. He fell for a total of 4 + 12 = 16 meters. The eighth platform is 16 meters high and the platforms are evenly spaced so each platform is 16 / 8 = 2 meters high. David was located 4 meters below the 16 meter level which is 16 - 4 = 12 meters high. Each platform is 2 meters high so 12 meters would mean the 12 / 2 = 6th platform. The answer is 6.
Q: Mrs. Young buys a 300 piece puzzle set for her three sons. She divides the pieces evenly to the three boys. Reyn can place 25 pieces into the puzzle picture. Rhys places twice as much as Reyn. Rory places three times as much as Reyn. Altogether, how many puzzle pieces are still left to be placed?
A: Each son receives 300 / 3 = 100 pieces. Rhys places 25 x 2 = 50 pieces. Rory places 25 x 3 = 75 pieces. All three boys place 25 + 50 + 75 = 150 pieces. The boys have not placed 300 - 150 = 150 pieces. The answer is 150.
