Whoozits are weird. They can be broken into any fractional part desired and then later be reassembled without harm. Sometimes even fractional parts of whoozits are shipped around the country to be assembled with other fractional parts to make new whole whoozits. SLUGCO had 40.95 whoozits they needed to ship to Timbuktu. Someone decided the easiest way to do it would be to put the same amount of whoozits in each box. If they had fifteen boxes, how many whoozits would go in each box?

The trees of a rainforest make a dense canopy high above the ground. Huge insects are common here. Snakes crawl on the ground and hang from vines and tree limbs. It is not a place I would like to be, but apparently some people find it irresistible. Believe it or not there is a rainforest in Washington State. The Hoh Rainforest is located on the Olympic Peninsula, two thousand, four hundred eighty miles from my home. If we drive there and average 54.4 miles per hour, how long will it take us to reach the rainforest?
