I stretch as far as a football field, Yet I fit in the palm of your hand. I will make you bleed if you don’t use me often. You put me in your mouth but don’t eat me, Then you throw me away.
Floss. It typically comes in 100 yard packs, which fit easily in your hand. If you don’t floss regularly, your gums will bleed. You use floss in your mouth then throw it away when you’re done.
Joe and Andrea want to copy three 60-minute cassette tapes. They have a 2-cassette recorder to copy the tapes, allowing them to copy two tapes at a time. Each side takes 30 minutes to be copied, so two tapes can be copied in an hour and the third will take another hour. Andrea bets Joe she can copy all three tapes in 90 minutes. Does she win the bet?
In the first 30 minutes Andrea copies the A sides of tape 1 and 2. In the second 30 minutes, she copies tape 1 side B and tape 3 side A (finishing Tape 1). In the last 30 minutes, she copies tape 2 side B and tape 3 side B.
