Christopher's sword is 15 inches long. How many inches longer is June's sword than Christopher's sword? | Twice the length of Christopher's sword is 15 x 2 = <<15*2=30>>30 inches.
So, Jameson's sword is 30 + 3 = <<30+3=33>>33 inches long.
June's sword is 33 + 5 = <<33+5=38>>38 inches long.

Jack has a stack of books that is 12 inches thick. He knows from experience that 80 pages is one inch thick. If he has 6 books, how many pages is each one on average? | There are 960 pages because 80 x 12 = <<80*12=960>>960
Each book is 160 pages because 960 / 6 = <<960/6=160>>160
