Answers:

01. First find the common denominator for the numbers 3, 4, 6, and 8. The only common denominator less than 30 is 24. Therefore, the students with a "B" = 8, "B-"= 6, "C" =4, failed = 3. This represents 21 of the students; so the 3 remaining students received an "A".

02. Divide 250 by 11 which equals 22.8. Now when you combine the extra 8 scraps with the scraps you'll have from the 22 bars, you'll have 30 more scraps. They will produce 2 more bars; so the total additional bars will be 24.

03. If Kerry eats 3 times as fast as Pete, he must be able to eat 3 times as many dumplings as his brother. Therefore, Kerry eats 24 while Pete eats 8 ( 32 ÷ 4 = 8 ). Together it takes them 45 minutes.

04. He had 6 oranges to start with, and ate 2 the first day and 2 the second day.

05. Joan is 32, Jane is 28, and Jean is 16.

Learning from Mistakes

Thomas Edison tried two thousand different materials in search of a filament for the light bulb. When none worked satisfactorily, his assistant complained,

“All our work is in Vain. We have Learned Nothing.”

Edison replied very confidently, “Oh, We have come a long way and we have learned a lot. We know that there are two thousand elements which we cannot use to make a good light bulb.”

Moral: We can also Learn from Our Mistakes.
