Question: Ben took his family fishing yesterday. Ben caught 4 fish, his wife Judy caught 1 fish, his oldest son Billy caught 3, his younger son Jim caught 2, and his youngest child Susie surprised them all by catching 5! Unfortunately, 3 of the fish were too small, so they threw them back. If each fish will give them 2 filets, how many fish filets will Ben and his family have?
Answer: Ben's family caught 4 + 1 + 3 + 2 + 5 = 15 fish. They kept 15 - 3 = 12 fish. They'll get 2 filets per fish, so they will have 12 fish * 2 filets per fish = 24 filets. The answer is 24.
