Question

How much wood could a woodchuck chuck if a woodchuck could chuck wood? Assuming that a woodchuck could chuck 200 pounds of wood every hour, how much wood could a woodchuck chuck in 24 hours? And if a Beaver steals about 1/3 of the wood at the end of the day, and a hawk gifts the woodchucks 1/2 the amount of wood they already have, and they use 3/5 of the wood building houses, all the events in that order, how much wood is left?

Answer 3

If a woodchuck could chuck 200 pounds of wood every hour, it could chuck 200 x 24 = 4800 pounds of wood in 24 hours.

If a beaver steals 1/3 of the wood, the amount remaining is 4800 - (4800/3) = 4800 - 1600 = 3200 pounds of wood.

If a hawk gifts the woodchucks 1/2 of the amount they already have, they receive an additional 3200/2 = 1600 pounds of wood.

The total amount of wood now is 3200 + 1600 = 4800 pounds.

If they use 3/5 of the wood to build houses, they use 4800 x (3/5) = 2880 pounds of wood.

Hence, the amount of wood left is 4800 - 2880 = 1920 pounds of wood.
