Just for fun, let’s deconstruct and solve another puzzle. Along the way we might just learn another life lesson. Here’s today’s puzzle from Ripley’s Believe It or Not! Nelson travels half the distance to a nearby town in an old biplane that goes 20 times faster than he can walk. Although he could move twice as fast on foot, he rides the other half in a farmer’s cart. How much time would he have saved or lost by traveling the whole distance on foot? There doesn’t seem to be much to hang onto; the distance of the trip is not specified, and no actual amount of time is given. . . .
