Andy and Dawn spent the weekend cleaning the house. When putting away the laundry Andy took six minutes more than two times the number of minutes it took Dawn to wash the dishes. If it took Dawn 20 minutes to wash the dishes how many minutes did it take Andy to put away the laundry? Let's answer step by step:
Two times the minutes it took Dawn to wash the dishes is 20 * 2 = 40. Andy took 40 + 6 = 46 minutes to put away the laundry. The answer: 46.
