You buy a basket of 24 strawberries. You eat them

as you walk to the beach. It takes the same amount of time to walk

each block. When you are halfway there, half of the berries are gone.

After walking 3 more blocks, you still have 5 blocks to go. You reach

the beach 28 minutes after you began. One-sixth of your strawberries

are left.

a. Is there enough information to find the time it takes to walk each

block? Explain.

b. Is there enough information to find how many strawberries you

ate while walking the last block? Explain.
