    75: Dougal, your answer is almost right but they asked for "how many extra workers".
    150 + 75= 225.

    Are i thought you would spot the deliberate mistake Ted well done,

    These story problems are always missing some crucial   bit of information. It's hard to do them without the missing piece of the puzzle. That's why I could never do them in school.
