Q: Lana and Mike are taking their dog and renting a cabin in the mountains for 2 weeks. The daily rate is $125.00 There is a $100.00 pet fee. There is also a 20% service/cleaning fee for the rental. They need to pay 50% of the entire bill as a security deposit. How much is their security deposit?
A: There are 7 days in a week and they're going for 2 weeks so that's 7 * 2 = 14 days. The daily rate is $125.00 and they are staying for 14 days so that's 125 * 14 = $1,750.00. There is also a $100.00 pet fee on top of their rental fee of $1,750.00 so that's 100 + 1750 = $1850.00. There is a 20% fee on the $1,850.00 so the fee comes to .20 * 1850 = $370.00. The rental will costs $1,850.00 and there is $370.00 service / cleaning fee for a total of 1850 + 370 = $2,220.00. They need to pay 50% of the entire bill as a security deposit so that will be .5 * 2220 = $1,110.00. The answer is 1110.
Question: Ben has two brothers. They can each eat 12 slices of pizza. They are ordering pizza for the night and want to make sure they get enough. The large pizzas have 14 slices and the small pizzas have 8. If they order 1 small pizza, how many large pizzas do they need to order?
Answer: They need 36 slices because 3 x 12 = 36. After ordering the small, they need 28 slices because 36 - 8 = 28. They need 2 large pizzas because 28 / 14 = 2. The answer is 2.
[Question]Connor wanted to order some new books to read. The website was offering free shipping over $50.00. They also had a deal that when you buy 4 books; the first two were 25% off. Book 1 cost 13.00 and Book 2 cost 15.00. Book 3 & 4 were both $10.00 each. How much more money did Connor need to spend to receive free shipping?
[Answer]Book 1 was $12.50 and book 2 was $15.00 so 13.00 + 15.00 = $28.00. He was buying 4 books, so these 2 were 25% off so 28.00 * .25 = $7.00. These two books came out to 28 - 7 = $21.00. Books 3 & 4 were both $10 each so 2 * 10 = $20.00. When you add all 4 books together, 21 + 20 = $41.00. To get free shipping he would need to spend 50 - 41 = $9.00 more on books. The answer is 9.
