A: He needs 9 scoops of flour because 3 / (1 / 3) = 9. He needs 6 scoops of sugar because 2 / (1 / 3) = 6. He needs 15 total scoops because 9 + 6 = 15. The answer is 15.

Q: Bill and Ted head to the river to throw stuff into the water. Bill throws 6 more sticks into the river than Ted does, but Ted tosses twice as many rocks into the river as Bill. If Ted tosses 10 sticks and 10 rocks into the river, how many objects did Bill toss into the river?
A:
Bill throws 10 + 6 = 16 sticks into the river. Bill throws 10 / 2 = 5 rocks into the river. Bill throws 16 + 5 = 21 objects in total into the river. The answer is 21.
