Answer:

A money problem is a good one for it. It should be something with a rate.

Answer:

I think something like this would work:

Me and my friend both work for x hours at different jobs. I get 58$ per hour and I already have 170$. My friend gets 42$ per hour, and already has 320. At the end I have more money. How many hours did we work?

Maybe try something like that.
