Jenny is trying to convince her cat to walk on a leash. The cat spends twenty minutes resisting. Then Jenny coaxes the cat to walk 64 feet at a rate of 8 feet/minute. How many minutes does this whole process take? Think carefully first, then make a decision:
First find how many minutes the cat spends walking: 64 feet / 8 feet / minute = 8 minutes. Then add this to the time the cat spent resisting to find the total amount of time: 8 minutes + 20 minutes = 28 minutes. So, the answer is 28.
