Q: Janet goes to the gym for 5 hours a week. She goes Monday, Tuesday, Wednesday, and Friday. She spends an hour and a half each day on Monday and Wednesday. If she spends the same amount of time at the gym on Tuesday and Friday how many hours is she at the gym on Friday?
A: Between Monday and Wednesday, she spends 1.5 hours + 1.5 hours = 3 hours. That means she has 5 hours - 3 hours = 2 hours left for Tuesday and Wednesday. She spends 2 hours / 2 = 1 hour on Friday. The answer is 1.
Question: Jeff had 300 pencils and donated 30% of them. Vicki had twice as many pencils as Jeff and donated 3/4 of his pencils. How many pencils are there remaining altogether?
Answer: Jeff donated 30 / 100 * 300 = 90 pencils. He remained with 300 - 90 = 210 pencils. Vicki had twice as many pencils as Jeff, meaning he had 2 * 300 = 600 pencils. When Vicki donated 3 / 4 of his pencils, he gave away 3 / 4 * 600 = 450 pencils. Vicki remained with 600 - 450 = 150 pencils. Together, Jeff and Vicki remained with 150 + 210 = 360 pencils. The answer is 360.
[Question]Anahi bought a 500 pages book to write some notes on. In the first week, she wrote on 150 pages. In the second week, she wrote on 30% of the remaining pages. While continuing writing, she accidentally spilled coffee on the book and damaged 20 percent of the empty pages she was to write on. Calculate the total number of empty pages available for her to write on now.
[Answer]If she bought a 500 pages book and wrote on 150 pages, the number of empty pages remaining is 500 - 150 = 350 pages. She then wrote on 30% of the remaining empty pages on the second week, a total of 30 / 100 * 350 = 105 pages. The number of remaining empty pages is 350 - 105 = 245 pages. When she spilled coffee on the remaining empty pages, the number of damaged pages was 20 / 100 * 245 = 49. The number of empty pages remaining that she could write on is 245 - 49 = 196 pages. The answer is 196.
Q: There are 322 voters in District 1. District 2 has 19 less voters than District 3. District 3 has twice as many voters as District 1. How many total voters are in Districts 1 - 3?
A: D1 = 322. D3 = 2 * 322 = 644. D2 = 644 - 19 = 625. 322 + 625 + 644 = 1591. There are 1591 voters in Districts 1 - 3. The answer is 1591.
Question: During the Christmas holidays, all shops are closed for 3 days. During each day during this time, a shop called "Surprise" could have earned 5 thousand dollars. How much potential revenue did the "Surprise" shop lose during 6 years of activity?
Answer: In one day the shop is losing 5 thousand dollars, so during three days, the losses are 5 * 3 = $15,000. Christmas holidays are once a year, so in 6 years the shop "Surprise" could have earned another $15,000 * 6 = $90,000. The answer is 90000.
Q: Mr. Callen bought 10 paintings at $40 each and 8 wooden toys at $20 each from the crafts store to resell at a profit. However, when he sold the items, the selling price of a painting was 10% less and the selling price of a hat 15% less. Calculate the total loss Mr. Callen made from the sale of the items.
A:
If he sold a painting at a 10% loss, then he made a 10 / 100 * $40 = $4 loss on each painting. since he bought 10 paintings, the total loss he made from selling the paintings is 10 * $4 = $40. He also made a loss of 15 / 100 * 20 = $3 loss from selling each wooden toy. Since he bought 8 wooden toys, the total loss he made was 3 * 8 = $24. In total, Mr. Callen made a loss of $40 + $24 = $64 from the sales of the items. The answer is 64.
