[Question]Voldemort had his dinner and ate a piece of cake that has 110 calories. He also ate 1 pack of chips that contained 310 calories and drank a 500 ml bottle of coke that has 215 calories. His caloric intake for breakfast and lunch is 560 and 780 calories, respectively. If he has a 2500 calorie intake limit per day, how many calories can he still take?
[Answer]For the night he was able to intake 110 + 310 + 215 = 635 calories. For breakfast and lunch, he was able to intake 560 + 780 = 1340 calories. So, for the entire day Voldemort was able to intake 1340 + 635 = 1975 calories. Therefore, he can still intake 2500 - 1975 = 525 calories. The answer is 525.
Q: Jaco wants to buy Christmas gifts for his 8 friends that are worth $9 each. Also, he wants to buy gifts for his mother and father that are of the same amount. He has a $100 budget to buy all gifts. How much is Jaco's budget for each of his mother and father's gift?
A: Jaco will spend a total of $9 x 8 = $72 for his 8 friends' gifts. He will be left with $100 - $72 = $28 for his mother and father's gift. So, Jaco's budget for each of his mother and father's gift is $28 / 2 = $14. The answer is 14.
Question: An opera house has 150 rows; each row has ten seats. The ticket costs $10 per show. How much did the opera house earn from one of the shows if 20% of the seats were not taken?
Answer: The opera house has 150 x 10 = 1500 seats. There are 1500 x 20 / 100 = 300 seats that were not taken. The total number of seats taken was 1500 - 300 = 1200. Therefore, the opera house earned $10 x 1200 = $12000 from one of the shows. The answer is 12000.
[Question]James binges on Cheezits and eats 3 bags that are 2 ounces each. There are 150 calories in an ounce of Cheezits. He then goes for a 40-minute run and burns 12 calories per minute. How many excess calories did he eat?
[Answer]He ate 2 * 3 = 6 ounces of cheez its. That means he ate 6 * 150 = 900 calories. He burned 40 * 12 = 480 calories. So he ate an excess of 900 - 480 = 420 calories. The answer is 420.
Q: Today is my birthday and I'm three times older than I was six years ago. What is my age?
A: We know that my age divided by three is equal to my age minus six therefore X / 3 = X - 6 where X = My age. This means that X = 3X - 18 because we can multiply both sides by 3. This also means that - 2X = - 18 because we can subtract 3X from the right side. Therefore X = 9 because - 18 / - 2 = 9. The answer is 9.
Question: Venny spent $15000 on a used car which cost 40% of the original price. What was the original price of the car?
