You've made it to Thanksgiving dinner early to make
sure you can watch the games. The Lions play the
Bears at 12:30pm and the Cowboys play the Raiders
at 4:30 pm. The average NFL game including com-
mercials is 3 hours and 12 minutes. The plan is to
eat between the games and Aunt Alejandra insists
on 30 minutes of uninterrupted mealtime! After the
meal you must help wash the casserole dishes BY
HAND! Dad requires each dish to soak individually in
soapy water for 1.5 minutes before you can wash
it. Assuming the first game lasted the average length
of 3 hours and 12 minutes, and you have 6 casserole
dishes to wash, how much time can you scrub
each dish and still make it to the kickoff of the
Cowboys game?
