Mark can do 32 per hr. TTH can do 10.667?? per hr.
32+10.667=42.667 per hour /60 minutes=.7111 riddles per minute
32/.7111= 45 minutes
Way to go!
It is called the grossed up amount.
.15+.1+.075=.325
100-.325=.675
250/.675=370.37
$370.37 would be the gross pay.
Yo are da man, or whatever the female equivalent is.

T/1 + T/3 = 1
T = 3/4 = 45 minutes

Flattery my dear Mark, will win you copious brownie points. :wink:

Thank goodness TTH was there to show you the way.
Aviation problem: A plane travels at a speed of 400 miles per hour for 1200 miles, and then returns by the same route at a speed of 300 miles per hour.
What is the average speed for the total trip
We know little about Try except that he first lived about the year 38 B.C. (That is C.E. to you tree huggers.) Due to one chronicler who described his life by the means of an algebraic riddle (math brain teaser), we know at least something about his sordid life of Sodom and Gomorrah.
Try's youth lasted 1/6 of his life. He had his first beard in the next 1/12 of his life. At the end of the following 1/7 of his life Try got married. Five years from then his son was born. His son lived exactly 1/2 of Try's life. Try died 4 years after the death of his son, Troy.
How long did Try live
And will he ever get to drive that race car!
