conversations.value: This math problem has got me stumped: Carson needs to mow the lawn and plant some flowers. Carson has to mow 40 lines to cover the whole yard, and it takes him 2 minutes to mow one line. He also needs to plant 8 rows of flowers, each with 7 flowers, and it takes him half a minute to plant each flower. How many minutes will Carson spend gardening?
  Can you show me the way?

conversations.value: First find the total time Carson spends mowing: 40 lines * 2 minutes/line = 80 minutes
  Then find the total number of flowers Carson plants: 8 rows * 7 flowers/row = 56 flowers
  Then multiply that number by the time taken to plant each flower to find the total time spent planting flowers: .5 minutes/flower * 56 flowers = 28 minutes
  Finally, add that time to the time spent mowing to find the total time spent gardening: 28 minutes + 80 minutes = 108 minutes
