Hester goes out for an afternoon bicycle ride. She rides for one hour at five miles an hour, then three hours at four miles an hour and finally two hours at seven miles an hour. How many miles did she ride in total?
31 miles.
1 hour at 5 mph = 5 miles 3 hours at 4 mph = 12 miles 2 hours at 7 mph = 14 miles
5 + 12 + 14 = 31 miles

5 + 12 + 14 = 31 miles
If you could chose to increase the average fuel economy of a car, which of these would save the most fuel?
1. 10mpg -> 12mpg 2. 12mpg -> 15mpg 3. 15mpg -> 20mpg 4. 20mpg -> 30mpg 5. 30mpg -> 60mpg
It turns out they all save the same amount of fuel.
If you travel 100 miles:
100 / 10 = 10 gallons used 100 / 12 = 8 1/3 gallons used
10 – 8 1/3 = 1 2/3 gallons saved
100 / 30 = 3 1/3 gallons used 100 / 60 = 1 2/3 gallons used
3 1/3 – 1 2/3 = 1 2/3 gallons saved

How many times does the letter S appear in the name of the longest river in the world?
Zero. The Nile is the longest river in the world. Some claim the Amazon as the longest, but that too has no “S”es (that looks weird but I don’t know how else to write the plural of “s”). The Mississippi is the 4th largest river in the world according to a href=”https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_rivers_by_length”>Wikipedia.
