Appendix C

The red team’s ice cube melted in 45 minutes. The green team’s ice cube melted in 30 minutes. What was the difference between their times?

If the orange team set the timer 4 times before their ice cube melted, how long did their ice cube take to melt?

The blue team’s cube took 30 minutes to melt. The red team’s cube took 45 minutes to melt. How long did both cubes take altogether?
