Question: Kara has to drink 4 ounces of water every time she takes her medication. Her medication instructions are to take one tablet three times a day. She followed the instructions for one week, but in the second week, she forgot twice on one day. How many ounces of water did she drink with her medication over those two weeks?
Solution:
Kara drinks 4 * 3 = 12 ounces of water with her medication each day.
In a week, she drinks 12 * 7 = 84 ounces of water with her medication.
In two weeks, she drinks 84 * 2 = 168 ounces of water with her medication.
One day, she forgot two tablets, so she did not drink 2 * 4 = 8 ounces of water.
Thus, Kara drank 168 - 8 = 160 ounces of water with her medication over two weeks.
Answer: 160
