Lizzy: It rained twice as much on Tuesday as Monday. On Monday it rained 3 inches more than Sunday. It rained 4 inches on Sunday. How much total rainfall was there over the 3 days?.
Me: Hmmm, let me think. I think this is the detailed solution:
It rained 3 + 4 = 7 inches on Monday. So it rained 7 * 2 = 14 inches on Tuesday. That means the total rainfall was 7 + 14 + 4 = 25 inches. Final answer: 25.
