asked 09/07/17How many things did they see altogether in that hour?
While the Foonies were flying through space, in one hour they saw one third as many strange objects as moons. They saw fewer moons than UFO's. They saw one fourth as many UFOs go by as stars. They saw 88 stars out the window of their spacecraft

Stars = 88
UFO = 1/4 stars = (1/4)88 = 22 UFO's
moons < UFO's
This is where the problem breaks down. By what factor
is the number of moons less than the number of UFO's?
Strange Objects = (1/3)moons
Total: 88 + 22 + Moons + (1/3)Moons
