[Question]Monika went out for the day and spent some money. She went to the mall and spent $250. Then, she went to the movies and watched 3 movies back to back that each cost $24. Then she stopped by the farmer's market on her way home and got 20 bags of beans at $1.25/bag. How much money did Monika spend throughout her day?
[Answer]Monika spent 24 * 3 = 72 dollars at the movies. Monika spent 20 * 1.25 = 25 dollars at the farmers market. Throughout her day, Monika spent 250 + 72 + 25 = 347 dollars. The answer is 347.

[Question]At a roller derby, 4 teams are competing. Each team is made up of 10 members, and each member needs a pair of roller skates to compete in and another pair of skates as a backup. None of the skates have laces yet, so each member is offered 3 sets of laces per pair of skates. How many sets of laces have been handed out?
[Answer]There are a total of 4 teams * 10 members per team = 40 team members. Each person receives 1 pair of competing roller skates + 1 pair of backup roller skates = 2 pairs of roller skates. So there are a total of 40 team members * 2 pairs of roller skates per team member = 80 roller skates. There were therefore 80 roller skates * 3 sets of laces per pair of roller skates = 240 sets of laces handed out. The answer is 240.

[Question]Five coaster vans are used to transport students for their field trip. Each van carries 28 students, 60 of which are boys. How many are girls?

[Question]Bea and Dawn both have a lemonade stand. Bea sells her lemonade at 25 cents while Dawn sells hers at 28 cents. If Bea sold 10 glasses and Dawn sold 8 glasses, how much more money (in cents) did Bea earn than Dawn?
[Answer]
Bea's sales amount to $0.25 / glass x 10 glasses = 250 cents. Dawn's sales amount to $0.28 / glass x 8 glasses = 224 cents. So, Bea earned $2.50 - $2.24 = 26 cents more than Dawn. The answer is 26.
