<p>Humm, the original elephant problem can be solved with a different method as the distances are given. That one is basic arithmetic that is 14 / (35/4). Too simple. </p>
<p>Here is a different problem. </p>
<p>An elephant traveled from its cage to the circus at an average rate of 4 miles per hour and then traveled back at an average rate of 1 mile per hour. If the total trip took 1 hour,
Case 1 : What was the distance travelled?<br>
Case 2: What is the distance between the cage and the circus? </p>
