Phyllis and her minions of homework-eating couches have been invading this planet since school began. They are actually beings from another galaxy that travel to this planet by an energy beam that comes out of TV sets. They materialize in living rooms and inhabit any piece of furniture nearby. They prefer couches.

When students do their homework while watching TV, Phyllis waits until they are not looking, then EATS their papers. The next day, when the home- work is due, the student can't find it!

 

 

 

At one school, Phyllis and her minions ate one-half of two-thirds of the students' homework. There were 2070 students in that school. How much homework was eaten? (Assume that each student has 1 homework assignment.)
