Q: Paul lives in a 5th story apartment. He makes 3 trips out from and back to his apartment throughout the day each day of a week. How many feet does he travel vertically in total over the week if each story is 10 feet tall?
A: Since Paul makes 3 trips per day, and each trip involves going both down and up, this means he travels the full vertical distance of his apartment complex 3 * 2 = 6 times a day. Since there are 7 days in a week, this means he makes this trip 6 * 7 = 42 times a week. Since each story is 10 feet tall, that means with 5 stories he travels 5 * 10 = 50 feet each trip. Since he made 42 trips of 50 feet each, this means he traveled 50 * 42 = 2100 feet in a week. The answer is 2100.

Q: Sunnyvale School was having a picnic. They wanted to make fruit punch. They had 4.5 liters of orange punch. They had twice as much cherry punch as orange punch and 1.5 liters less of apple juice than cherry punch. When they combined all of the fruit juices together, how many liters of fruit punch did they have?
A: Orange = 4.5 L. Cherry = 2 * 4.5 = 9 L. Apple = 9 - 1.5 = 7.5 L. Total punch = 4.5 + 9 + 7.5 = 21 L. They had 21 liters of fruit punch for the picnic. The answer is 21.
Question: Jane runs 3 kilometers in two hours. What is her speed in meters per minute?
Answer: Since 1 kilometer is equal to 1000 meters, then 3 kilometers is 3 x 1000 = 3000 meters. Since an hour has 60 minutes, then 2 hours is equal to 2 x 60 = 120 minutes. Therefore, her speed is 3000 meters / 120 hours = 25 meters per minute. The answer is 25.
Q: A movie theater company is advertising a deal of a movie ticket, a bucket of popcorn, a drink, and a box of candy for $20. Normally, a movie ticket costs $8, a bucket of popcorn costs three dollars less, a drink costs a dollar more than popcorn, and a candy costs half as much as a drink. How many dollars does the deal save a customer who buys a ticket, popcorn, drink, and candy normally?
A:
The popcorn costs 8 - 3 = $5. The drink costs 5 + 1 = $6. The candy costs 6 / 2 = $3. The normal price is 8 + 5 + 6 + 3 = $22. Thus, the deal saves a customer 22 - 20 = $2. The answer is 2.
