This is what you know:
1. The name of this game is significant (Petals Around the Rose)
How is the score determined?
The solution is to count the dots (petals) surrounding the center dot (the rose).
Only odd numbers have a center dot, so even numbers (2, 4 and 6) are worth zero.
1 doesn’t have any surrounding dots, so it too is worth zero.
The three has two dots surrounding the center, so it’s worth two.
A five has four petals around the rose making it worth four.

Two bikes are traveling toward each other at a constant speed of 10 mph. When the bikes are 20 miles apart, a bee flies from the front wheel of one of the bikes toward the other bike at a constant speed of 25 mph. As soon as it reaches the front wheel of the other bike, it immediately turns around and flies at 25 mph toward the first bike. It continues this pattern until the two bikes smush the bee between the two front tires.
How far did the bee travel?
25 miles.
The easiest way to think about this is to consider the time. The bikes will take 1 hour to touch, given that they start 20 miles apart and are each traveling toward each other at 10 mph.
Therefore the bee is buzzing back and forth at 25 mph for 1 hour.
