This problem was in one of the lessons in Saxon Algebra 1:
Juanita exercised for one hour. How many seconds did Juanita exercise?
I love this problem. Don't know why. (Though I do remember, as a child, being tickled by the fact that a short period of time, like one hour, could have a very large number of even shorter periods of time inside of it...) Anyway, I pulled this one out for Christopher to do.

"Juanita exercised for one hour." After she finished exercising, she collapsed on the floor, exhausted. Assuming Juanita is approaching middle age, how many hours will it take Juanita to recover? It's GREAT to have you back, Catherine!! -- KarenA - 02 Sep 2006
