Word Problem Wednesday: Birdfeeders

Feb 22, 2017 | Naperville

Spring is just around the corner.  Flowers will soon be blooming, critters will be stirring from hibernation holes, and birds will be looking for feeders… such “peckish” little creatures!  

Can you solve this week’s bird feeder word problem?  (You never know when you might need to apply these calculations for your own bird feeder building efforts!)

It takes Derek 25 minutes to build one bird feeder.  If he needs to build seven bird feeders and has already finished three, how much longer will it take Derek to finish the bird feeders?
