Jenny and Mark are throwing bottle caps. Jenny's bottlecap flies 18 feet straight, then bounces off a street light and flies another 1/3 of the distance it already went. Mark's bottle cap flies 15 feet forward, then bounces off a window and flies twice as far as it already did. How much further did Mark's bottle cap go than Jenny's? Let's think step by step and output the final answer after "####".

First find 1/3 of the distance Jenny's bottlecap went straight: 18 feet / 3 = <<18/3=6>>6 feet
Then add that to the distance it flew straight to find the total distance it traveled: 6 feet + 18 feet = <<6+18=24>>24 feet
Then find twice the distance Mark's bottlecap went straight: 15 feet * 2 = <<15*2=30>>30 feet
Then add that distance to the distance it flew straight to find the total distance it traveled: 30 feet + 15 feet = <<30+15=45>>45 feet
Then subtract the distance Jenny's bottlecap traveled from the distance Mark's traveled to find the difference: 45 feet - 24 feet = <<45-24=21>>21 feet
