<human>:  Three cats sat on a fence, meowing at the moon. The first cat meowed 3 times per minute. The second cat meowed twice as frequently as the first cat. And the third cat meowed at one-third the frequency of the second cat. What is the combined total number of meows the three cats make in 5 minutes?
<bot>: How many meows does the second cat make? ** The second cat meowed twice as frequently as the three meows per minute from the first cat, for a total of 2*3=<<2*3=6>>6 meows per minute.
How many meows does the third cat make? ** The third cat meowed at one-third the frequency of the second cat, for a total of 6/3=<<6/3=2>>2 meows per minute.
What is the combined total number of meows the three cats make in 5 minutes? ** Thus, combined, the three cats meow 3+6+2=<<3+6+2=11>>11 times per minute.
What is the combined total number ** In five minutes, the three cats meow 5*11=<<5*11=55>>55 times.
