Question: A movie theater has 6 screens which show movies back-to-back all day. If the movie theater is open for 8 hours, and each movie lasts 2 hours, how many movies are shown in total throughout the day? Think carefully first, then make a decision:
Each screen shows movies all day, which means each screen shows 8 hours / day / 2 hours per movie = 4 movies / day. So in total, the movie theater shows 6 screens * 4 movies / day = 24 movies. So the answer is 24.
