[Question]Exactly two-fifths of NBA players who signed up for a test are aged between 25 and 35 years. If three-eighths of them are older than 35, and a total of 1000 players signed up, how many players are younger than 25 years?
[Answer]Two - fifths of 1000 players is (2 / 5) * 1000 = 400 players. Three eights of 1000 players is (3 / 8) * 1000 = 375 players. The total number of players 25 or older is 400 + 375 = 775. The number of players younger than 25 years is 1000 - 775 = 225 players. The answer is 225.

Question: James invests $2000 a week into his bank account. He had $250,000 in his account when the year started. At the end of the year, he gets a windfall that is worth 50% more than what he has in his bank account.  How much money does he have?
Answer:
He deposited 2000 * 52 = $104,000 into his account. So he has 250000 + 104000 = $354,000. His windfall is worth .5 * 354,000 = $177,000 more than his current account. That means he got 177,000 + 354,000 = $531,000. So he had a total of 531,000 + 354,000 = $885,000. The answer is 885000.
