Connor sleeps 6 hours a night. His older brother Luke sleeps 2 hours longer than Connor. Connor’s new puppy sleeps twice as long as Luke. How long does the puppy sleep? Give me reasons, before answering the question
Luke sleeps 2 hours longer than Connor who sleeps 6 hours so that’s 2 + 6 = 8 hours. The new puppy sleeps twice as long as Luke, who sleeps 8 hours, so the puppy sleeps 2 * 8 = 16 hours. So the final answer is 16.
