Q: John watches a TV show and they announce they are going to do 1 more season. Each season is 22 episodes except for the last season which is 4 episodes longer. There were 9 seasons before the announcement. If each episode is .5 hours how long will it take to watch them all after the last season finishes?
A: There are currently 9 * 22 = 198 episodes out. The new season will have 22 + 4 = 26 episodes. So the total number of episodes is 198 + 26 = 224 episodes. So it will take 224 * .5 = 112 hours to watch them all. The answer is 112.
Question: Bill is hoarding toilet paper in fear of another pandemic. Bill goes to the bathroom three times a day and uses 5 squares of toilet paper each time. If Bill has 1000 rolls of toilet paper and each roll has 300 squares of toilet paper, how many days will his toilet paper supply last?
Answer: First find the total number of squares Bill's hoard has: 1000 rolls * 300 squares / roll = 300000 squares. Then find the number of squares Bill uses each day: 5 squares / time * 3 times / day = 15 squares / day. Now divide the total number of squares by the number of squares Bill uses each day to find how many days his hoard will last: 300000 squares / 15 squares / day = 20000 days. The answer is 20000.

Q: A man loves to go hiking. He knows that he has to pack about .5 pounds of supplies for every mile he hikes. He plans to go for a very long hike. He knows that he can get 1 resupply during the hike that will be 25% as large as his first pack. He can hike at a rate of 2.5 mph. He is going to hike 8 hours a day for 5 days. How much does he need to bring with his first pack?
A: He is going to hike 8 * = 40 hours. That means he will be hiking for 40 * 2.5 = 100 miles. So he needs 100 * .5 = 50 pounds of supplies. With the resupply he can get up to 1 + .25 = 1.25 times his initial pack. That means his initial pack has to weigh 50 / 1.25 = 40 pounds. The answer is 40.

Q: Maria is a saleswoman at a flower shop. On the first day, she sold 30 tulips and 20 roses. The next day, she doubled the previous day's sales. On the third day, she sold only 10% of the tulips sold on the second day and 16 roses. The price of one tulip is $2 and one rose is $3. How much did Maria earn over these three days?
A:
On the second day, Maria sold 30 * 2 = 60 tulips. She also sold 20 * 2 = 40 roses the second day. On the third day, Maria sold only 10 / 100 * 60 = 6 tulips. Over these three days Maria sold 30 + 60 + 6 = 96 tulips. She also sold 20 + 40 + 16 = 76 roses. So on the tulips Maria earned 96 * 2 = $192. And on roses Maria earned 76 * 3 = $228. In total, over these three days, Maria has earned 192 + 228 = $420. The answer is 420.
