Question: Tyson can swim at a speed of 3 miles per hour in a lake and 2.5 mph in an ocean. This season, half his races happened in lakes and half his races happened in the ocean. He had ten total races, each of which was 3 miles long. How much time did he spend in his races?
Answer: He did 5 races in the lake because 10 / 2 = 5. He did 5 races in the ocean because 10 / 2 = 5. He raced 15 miles in the lake because 5 x 3 = 15. His lake races took 6 hours because 15 / 2.5 = 6. He raced 15 miles in the ocean because 5 x 3 = 15. His ocean races took 5 hours because 15 / 3 = 5. He spent 11 hours racing because 5 + 6 = 11. The answer is 11.
[Question]Jude bought three chairs for his house, all at the same price. He also bought a table that costs $50 and two sets of plates at $20 for each set. After giving the cashier $130, Jude got a $4 change. How much did each of the chairs cost?
[Answer]The two sets of plates amount to $20 x 2 = $40. So the table and the two sets of plates amount to $50 + $40 = $90 in all. Since Jude received a $4 change, then he paid a total of $130 - $4 = $126 for the chairs, tables, and plates. Thus, the three chairs cost $126 - $90 = $36. Therefore, each chair cost $36 / 3 = $12. The answer is 12.
Q: Ellen is baking bread. It takes 3 hours to rise 1 ball of dough, and then another 2 hours to bake it. If she makes 4 balls of dough one after another and then bakes them one after another when they're done rising, how many hours will it take?
A: Ellen takes 4 * 3 = 12 hours in total to rise all balls of dough. It will take 4 * 2 = 8 more hours to bake each one. It will take her 12 + 8 = 20 hours to make all of the bread. The answer is 20.
Question: Josh wants to build a square sandbox that is 3 ft long, 3 ft wide for his son. He can buy sand in 3 sq ft bags for $4.00 a bag. How much will it cost him to fill up the sandbox?
Answer: The sandbox is 3' long, 3' wide so the sq footage of the sandbox is 3 * 3 = 9 sq ft. He needs 9 sq ft of sand to fill the sandbox and he can buy it in 3 sq ft bags so he needs 9 / 3 = 3 bags of sand. The sand costs $4.00 a bag and he needs 3 bags so it will cost him 4 * 3 = $12.00 in sand. The answer is 12.
