[Question]There are 48 passengers on the bus. Two-thirds of the passengers are women and the rest are men. If one-eighth of the men are standing, how many men are seated?
[Answer]There are 48 x 2 / 3 = 32 women on the bus. So, 48 - 32 = 16 are men. Out of the 16, 16 x 1 / 8 = 2 men are standing. Hence, 16 - 2 = 14 men are seated. The answer is 14.
Q: In Dana's senior high school class there were 200 students. 60% of the students were female, and 50% of the females were brunettes. If 50% of the female brunettes were under 5 feet tall, then how many female brunettes in Dana's high school senior class were under 5 feet tall?
A: In Dana's senior class, the 60% of 200 students is 0.6 * 200 = 120 female students. Fifty percent of the females, or 0.5 * 120 = 60 of the female students were brunettes. If 50% of the female brunettes were under 5 feet tall, then there were 60 * 0.5 = 30 female brunettes under five feet tall in Dana's senior class. The answer is 30.
Question: Camille goes to the Ice Cream Palace with her husband and two children. Each one orders a different ice cream. Camille orders a banana split, her husband orders a waffle bowl, her daughter orders a single cone, and her son orders a double cone. The cone has 1 scoop of ice cream, the banana split has 3 times as many scoops of ice cream as the cone and the waffle bowl has 1 more scoop than the banana split. How many scoops of ice cream did the ice cream man serve?
Answer: The double cone has 2 * 1 = 2 scoops of ice cream. The banana split has three times as many scoops of ice cream as the single cone, so it has 3 * 1 = 3 scoops of ice cream. The waffle bowl has 1 more scoop of ice cream than the banana split, so it has 3 + 1 = 4 scoops of ice cream. The ice cream man served a total of 1 + 2 + 3 + 4 = 10 scoops of ice cream. The answer is 10.
