[Question]Three years ago, Bethany was twice the age of her younger sister. In 5 years, her younger sister will be 16. How old is Bethany now?
[Answer]First find how old Bethany's sister currently is: 16 years - 5 years = 11 years. Then find how old her sister was 3 years ago: 11 years - 3 years = 8 years. Then double that age to find how old Bethany was three years ago: 8 years * 2 = 16 years. Then add 3 years to that number to find how old Bethany is now: 16 years + 3 years = 19 years. The answer is 19.
Q: Maddy was given 40 chocolate eggs for Easter. She likes to eat two each day after school. If Maddy has two chocolate eggs after school each day, how many weeks will they last?
A: Maddy is eating 2 eggs each day after school and there are 5 school days in a week, so she eats 2 x 5 = 10 eggs each week. Since Maddy has 40 eggs / 10 eggs each week, they will last 4 weeks. The answer is 4.
Question: Jenny is scraping gum off the bottom of the seats in a stadium with two sections. Section A has 1 subsection with 60 seats and 3 subsections with 80 seats each. Section B has 20 more seats than 3 times as many seats as Section A has total. How many seats does Section B have?
Answer: First find how many total seats are in the 80 - seat subsections: 80 seats / subsection * 3 subsections = 240 seats. Then add the number of seats in the 60 - seat section to find the total number of seats in Section A: 240 seats + 60 seats = 300 seats. Then triple that number: 300 seats * 3 = 900 seats. Then add 20 seats to find the total number of seats in Section B: 900 seats + 20 seats = 920 seats. The answer is 920.
[Question]Hannah is trying to figure out how much she'll get paid this week. She makes $30/hour and works 18 hours per week. Her pay is docked $5 each time she's late. If she was late 3 times this week, how much does she get paid?
[Answer]Hannah's total earnings are 18 hours * $30 / hour = $540 a week. Her pay was docked because she was late 3 times, so 3 times * $5 per time = $15 were docked. She gets paid $540 - $15 = $525 at the end of the week. The answer is 525.
[Question]Job is a farmer who rears cattle and grows crops. In total he has 150 hectares of land. 25 hectares are occupied by his house and farm machinery, and 15 hectares have been reserved for future expansion. 40 hectares are dedicated to rearing cattle. Assuming the rest of his land is used for crops, how many hectares of land does Job use for crop production?
[Answer]
Job uses 25 + 15 + 40 = 80 hectares of land for non - crop purposes. Thus he uses 150 - 80 = 70 hectares for crop production. The answer is 70.
