[Question]The fall semester lasts 15 weeks. During the weekdays, Paris studies 3 hours a day for her classes. On the weekends, she spends 4 hours studying on Saturday and 5 hours studying on Sunday. How much time does Paris study during the semester?
[Answer]During the weekdays, Paris studies 3 hours a day for 5 * 3 = 15 hours. She studies 4 hours on Saturday and 5 hours on Sunday for a total of 4 + 5 = 9 hours on the weekends. If she studies 15 hours during the weekdays and 9 hours on the weekends then she studies 15 + 9 = 24 hours per week. There are 15 weeks in the fall semester and she studies 24 hours a week so she will spend 15 * 24 = 360 hours studying. The answer is 360.

Question: Gwendolyn can read 200 sentences of a book in 1 hour. She just brought a book from the library, having 20 paragraphs per page. What's the total time Gwendolyn will take to read the book if each paragraph has 10 sentences and the book has 50 pages?
Answer: Gwendolyn just brought a book from the library, having 20 paragraphs per page, and since the book has 50 pages, the number of paragraphs in the book is 50 * 20 = 1000 paragraphs. If each paragraph has 10 sentences, the book's number of sentences is 1000 * 10 = 10000 sentences. Since Gwendolyn can read 200 sentences of a book in 1 hour, she will read 10000 sentences in 10000 / 200 = 50 hours. The answer is 50.
[Question]Sandy's goal is to drink 3 liters of water in a day. She drinks 500 milliliters of water every after 2 hours. After how many hours will she be able to drink a total of 3 liters of water?
