Answer the following question.
A carton contains 12 boxes. If each box has 10 packs of cheese cookies, what's the price of a pack of cheese cookies if a dozen cartons cost $1440?
Step-by-step reasoning process: If 1 carton contains 12 boxes, then a dozen cartons contain 12 * 12 = 144 boxes. If 1 box has 10 packs of cookies, then 144 boxes have 144 * 10 = 1440 packs. If a dozen cartons cost $1440 and contain 1440 packs of cookies, then each pack costs 1440 / 1440 = $1.
The answer is 1.

Answer the following question.
Nick is trying to raise money for a charity. He is selling candy bars for $5. He is also selling chocolate oranges for $10. He wants to raise $1000. He only had 20 chocolate oranges that he sold out. How many candy bars does Nick need to sell to reach his goal?
Step-by-step reasoning process: Nick has made 20 * $10 = $200 from the chocolate oranges. This means he needs to raise another $1000 - $200 = $800. He needs to sell a total of $800 / $5 = 160 candy bars to reach his goal.
The answer is 160.

Answer the following question.
Susan wants to throw a party for her mom. She is planning on having 30 guests. For dinner she is making a recipe that makes 2 servings each. Each batch of the recipe calls for 4 potatoes and 1 teaspoon of salt. A potato costs $.10 and a container of salt costs $2 at the supermarket. If each container of salt has 5 teaspoons, how much money will Susan spend on food?
Step-by-step reasoning process: Susan needs to make 30 / 2 = 15 batches of the recipe. Therefore, she will need 15 * 4 = 60 potatoes. She will also need 1 * 15 = 15 teaspoons of salt. Thus she will have to buy 15 / 5 = 3 containers of salt. Therefore, she will spend 60 * $.1 = $6 on potatoes and 3 * $2 = $6 on salt. Thus, she will spend $6 + $6 = $12 on food.
The answer is 12.
