Johnny wrote an essay with 150 words. Madeline wrote an essay that was double in length, and Timothy wrote an essay that had 30 words more than Madeline's. If one page contains 260 words, how many pages do Johnny, Madeline, and Timothy's essays fill? Let's be accurate as possible.
Madeline's essay was 150 x 2 = 300 words. Timothy's essay was 300 + 30 = 330 words. All together, they wrote 150 + 300 + 330 = 780 words. Their essays fill 780 / 260 = 3 pages.
The answer: 3.
