Question: The world record for the greatest number of hula hoops spun at the same time is held by Marawa Ibrahim from Australia. She can spin 200 hula hoops at once. If Aria can spin 150 hula hoops right now, how many more does she need to spin to break the world record?
Answer: 51 hula hoops
Solution: To get from 150 to 200 hula hoops, Aria would need 50 more. But that would only tie her with Marawa, so to break the record, Aria would need one more. 50 + 1 = 51 hula hoops.
