Question

Peter needs to wash 20 plates, 30 pieces of silverware, and 10 cups. Then he needs to dry them all. How many items will he touch, if he touches each of them twice, once to wash and once to dry?

Answer 1

This Is A Trick Question, It Says Items Not How Many Times. He Will Touch 60 ITEMS 120 Times.

Answer 2

Each item is touched twice, once to wash and one to dry.

Total number of items is 20 plates + 30 silverware + 10 cups = 60
60 items x 2 touches = 120.
