Question: Carolyn wants to embroider her new jeans. She can sew 4 stitches/minute. A flower takes 60 stitches to embroider, a unicorn takes 180 stitches, and Godzilla takes 800 stitches. If Carolyn wants to embroider Godzilla crushing 3 unicorns and 50 flowers, how many minutes does she need to spend embroidering?
Answer with step-by-step thinking:
First find the total stitches in all the flowers by multiplying the number of stitches per flower by the number of flowers: 50 flowers * 60 stitches / flower = 3000 stitches. Then do the same for the total number of stitches in the unicorns: 3 unicorns * 180 stitches / unicorn = 540 stitches. Then add the number of stitches for all the flowers, unicorns, and Godzilla to find the total number of stitches: 800 stitches + 540 stitches + 3000 stitches = 4340 stitches. Finally, divide the total number of stitches by the number of stitches Carolyn can make per hour to find how many hours she spends embroidering: 4340 stitches / 4 stitches / minute = 1085 minutes.
So the answer is 1085.
