My question is: A busy port has 4 cruise ships and twice as many cargo ships. The number of sailboats is 6 more than the cargo ships and seven times more than fishing boats. How many vessels are there on the water? Your thoughts:

There are 4 x 2 = 8 cargo ships. There are 8 + 6 = 14 sailboats. There are 14 / 7 = 2 fishing boats. There are 4 + 8 + 14 + 2 = 28 vessels on the water. The final answer: 28.
