Upper Elementary:
Question: A fairy can fly 16 miles per hour. If the fairy leaves for Neverland at 8:03 PM and gets there at 7:33 AM, then how far away is Neverland?
Answer: 184 miles
Solution: From 8:03 pm to 7:33 am is 11½ hours. So, the fairy travels a total distance of 16 × 11½ = 16 × 11 + 16 × ½ = 176 + 8 = 184 miles.
