Question:
Timmy's rate of making paper airplanes when uninterrupted is 6 per hour, but when interrupted, his rate drops to 4 per hour.
During the three-hour contest, Timmy is interrupted once every hour, so he can make:
Hour 1: 4 paper airplanes
Hour 2: 4 paper airplanes
Hour 3: 4 paper airplanes
Total paper airplanes made by Timmy: 4 + 4 + 4 = 12 paper airplanes
John's rate of making paper airplanes is 7 per hour. However, he had to take a one-hour break to do chores, so he can make:
Hour 1: 7 paper airplanes
Hour 2: 7 paper airplanes
Hour 3: He had to do chores
Total paper airplanes made by John: 7 + 7 = 14 paper airplanes
Therefore, the winner of the contest is John, who made 14 paper airplanes. John made 14 - 12 = 2 more paper airplanes than Timmy.
