How much wood could a woodchuck chuck if it chucked 3.98 centimeters of wood a second and it was chucking for 9.876 seconds?
What percentage of the wood would it be if there was 222.345 inches of wood?


I started this off as a silly question somewhere else but then turned it into a helpful review question if you are studying:
-Percentages to fractions /Fractions to percentages
-Proportions
-And more (probably because there's always more I haven't thought of yet or haven't learned)

Hi IQRaiser,
Why didn't you continue with the old thread. It was fun. and I actually learned what a woodchuck was!
There is lots of new people. They would not have seen it.
You could have found it by searching for 'woodchuck'
If you were a member you could dig it out now and delete this new thread. - that is if you wanted to of course.
I like your new username

Here is the old thread.

hi IQRaiser,
I like your learning idea.. Reinout and I have tried to do similar things with the puzzles.
Unfortunately it has not worked very well so far. Maybe people are just too busy with their own school problems to be bothered with more.
I you can get anyone inspired that would be fantastic.
Melody.

3.98cm/sec * 9.876sec = 39.30648cm

39.30648cm = 15.47499in

15.47499in / 222.345in = 0.06959900155164271739863725291776

ANS * 100% = 6.9599001551642717398637252917763%

If it was something wrong, I didn't get it
