I always hated math word problems in school. So maybe you all can help me figure this one out.
Katie parks her 12 passenger van on the street (and half on the curb...). She rakes 3 piles of leaves for 90 minutes. She goes inside to start dinner. Door bell rings. Neighbor's friend has backed into the 12 passenger van and left a dent in the driver's door. Neighbor's friend leaves name, telephone number, and address.Help!
Katie takes her 12 passenger van to the local body shop. Mechanic gives her an estimate of $700 and 3 days repair time. Neighbor's friend agrees to drop off a check to pay the bill.
Here's the problem. The reason Katie has a 12 passenger van is because she has 5 children. The Fleck's other vehicle? A Jeep Wrangler that seats 4. She has to go 3 days without the 12 passenger van (and the body shop is closed on weekends).
