Q: A teacher is making packed lunches for a field trip. Each student needs 2 sandwiches, and will travel in a group with 5 other students. There are a total of 5 groups. How many pieces of bread will the teacher need to make enough sandwiches for all the students?
A: If each student travels with 5 others, then groups are made up of 5 + 1 = 6 students. This means there are a total of 5 groups * 6 students = 30 students in the class. Each student needs 2 sandwiches, which means the teacher will make 30 students * 2 sandwiches per student = 60 sandwiches in total. Therefore, the teachers will need 60 sandwiches * 2 pieces of bread per sandwich = 120 pieces of bread. The answer is 120.
Question: Sophie's aunt gave her $260 to spend on clothes at the mall. She bought 2 shirts that cost $18.50 each and a pair of trousers that cost $63. She then decides to purchase 4 more articles of clothing with her remaining budget. How much money would each item cost if she split the cost of each item evenly?
Answer: Sophie spent $18.50 × 2 = $37 on the two shirts. She spent in total $37 + $63 = $100 on clothes so far. She has $260 - $100 = $160 left to spend on clothes. Sophie has $160 ÷ 4 = $40 left to spend on each additional item of clothing. The answer is 40.
[Question]Bob bought 2 show dogs for $250.00 each to breed as a side business. The female just had a litter of 6 puppies. If he sells each puppy for $350.00, what is his total profit?
[Answer]He bought 2 dogs for $250.00 each so they costs 2 * 250 = $500.00. He sells each of the 6 puppies for $350.00 so he'll make 6 * 350 = $2,100.00. He made $2,100 on the puppies but spent $500.00 to buy the dogs so his total profit is 2,100 - 500 = $1,600.00. The answer is 1600.
