Jim spends 8 hours scuba diving. In that time he finds a treasure chest with 100 gold coins in it. He also finds 2 smaller bags that have half as much gold each. How much gold does he find per hour? Give me reasons, before answering the question
The smaller bags each have 100 / 2 = 50 gold coins each. So in total, they have 50 * 2 = 100 coins. So he found 100 + 100 = 200 coins. So he finds 200 / 8 = 25 coins an hour. So the final answer is 25.
