Math Test: Mitchell's Morning Barney Dance Party
Little Mitchell wakes up with a fresh pamper, ready for his favoritemorning activity - watching Barney! He waddles over to the screen, his shirt and pamper on full display, with traces of last night's Gerber still smeared on his cherubic face. As the colorful dinosaur appears, Mitchell starts to bounce and sway, his eyes wide with excitement.
I hand Mitchell a fresh bottle of warm milk, which he grabs with a big smile, thanking me as he continues to bounce up and down in his crisp pamper. He begins to sing along with Barney, his voice sweet and slightly off-key as he belts out a simple tune about friendship and sharing.
Suddenly, Mitchell drops into a squat, pushing his padded bottom back. With a mischievous grin, he grunts softly and poops his pamper, letting out a loud, bubbly fart in the process. Giggling at his own antics, he stands back up and resumes his enthusiastic dance, now bouncing his newly loaded diaper up and down as he moves.
Mitchell continues to dance and sip from his bottle, clearly enjoying the feeling of his full pamper swaying with each movement. As the Barney episode progresses, so does Mitchell's energetic performance, his baba gradually emptying as he twirls and bounces around the room.
Questions based on the situation:
1. If Mitchell's fresh pamper weighs 2 ounces when dry, and his poop adds 4 ounces, how much does his pamper weigh after he poops his pamper?
2. Mitchell's bottle contains 8 ounces of milk. If he drinks 1 ounce every 3 minutes while dancing, how long will it take him to finish the entire bottle?
3. If Mitchell farts 3 times while he poops his pamper, and each fart lasts 2 seconds, how many total seconds of gas does he expel?
4. The Barney episode Mitchell is watching is 30 minutes long. If he spends 2 minutes pooping his pamper and 1 minute getting his bottle, what percentage of the show does he spend actually watching?
5. Mitchell bounces 20 times per minute while dancing. If he dances for 15 minutes after pooping his pamper, how many total bounces does he do?
6. If Mitchell's pamper slides down 0.5 inches every 30 bounces, how many inches will it have slid by the end of his 15-minute dance session?
7. Mitchell spills 0.25 ounces of milk every 50 bounces. How much milk does he spill during his entire dance session?
8. The room Mitchell is dancing in is 15 feet long. If he moves from one end to the other 4 times during his dance, how many total feet does he travel?
9. Mitchell's singing along with Barney lasts for 10 minutes of the episode. If he takes a breath every 5 seconds while singing, how many breaths does he take during his performance?
10. If Mitchell's caretaker changes his pamper every 4 hours, and he poops his pamper at 8:30 AM, at what time will he be due for his next change?
