[Question]Martha buys 1 latte for $4.00 every morning, 5 days a week. 3 days a week, she buys an iced coffee for $2.00. Her goal for the entire year is to cut her coffee spending by 25%. How much will she save?
[Answer]She buys a $4.00 latte in the morning for 5 days so that’s 4 * 5 = $20.00. She buys a $2.00 iced coffee 3 days a week so that’s 2 * 3 = $6.00. In one week she spends $20.00 on lattes and $6.00 on iced coffee for a total of 20 + 6 = $26.00. After 1 year, 52 weeks, she spends 52 * 26 = $1,352.00. She wants to cut her coffee spending by 25% so that will save her .25 * 1352 = $338.00. The answer is 338.

[Question]Ivory and Brayan are doing school projects with a tight deadline and have to stay up late to complete everything. They prepare coffee to help them stay focused. If Brayan drinks twice as much coffee as Ivory, and Brayan drinks 4 cups of coffee in an hour, calculate the total number of cups of coffee they drink together in 5 hours.
[Answer]If Brayan drinks 4 cups of coffee in an hour, twice what Ivory drinks, then Ivory drinks 4 / 2 = 2 cups of coffee in an hour. Together, they drink 4 + 2 = 6 cups of coffee in an hour. After 5 hours, they will drink 5 * 6 = 30 cups of coffee together. The answer is 30.

[Question]Alyssa, Keely, and Kendall ordered 100 chicken nuggets from a fast-food restaurant. Keely and Kendall each ate twice as many as Alyssa. How many did Alyssa eat?
[Answer]
To figure out this problem we need to turn it into an equation. Let’s make A the number of nuggets Alyssa ate. We know all three girls ate 100 nuggets total, so 100 nuggets = A (how many Alyssa ate) + 2A (how many Keely ate) + 3A (how many Kendall ate) or 100 = A + 2A + 3A which is 100 = 5A. Then we will divide each side by 5 to figure out how many nuggets Alyssa ate, 100 / 5 = 5A / 5 or 20 = A. The answer is 20.
