Answer this question:Lefty scores 20 points in a game and his teammate Righty scores half as many as Lefty does. Their other teammate scores 6 times as much as Righty does. What are the average points scored per player on the team?
First, we need to determine how many points Righty scored. To do this we perform 20 / 2 = 10 points since Righty scored half as many as Lefty did. Then, to find the other teammate's points we perform 10 * 6 = 60 points scored, as they scored 6 times as many as Righty did. We then add all three teammates' points together, performing 20 + 10 + 60 = 90 points as the first step towards finding the average. We then divide this sum by the total number of players we're averaging, getting 90 / 3 = 30 points per player.
The answer is 30.

Answer this question:Anne drops a mirror and breaks it into 60 pieces. She sweeps up half of them, then her cat steals 3 pieces and her boyfriend picks up 1/3 of the remaining pieces. How many pieces does her boyfriend pick up?
First find the number of pieces left after Anne sweeps up: 60 pieces / 2 = 30 pieces. Then subtract the number her cat takes: 30 pieces - 3 pieces = 27 pieces. Divide that number by 3 to find how many pieces her boyfriend picks up: 27 pieces / 3 = 9 pieces.
The answer is 9.

Answer this question:Haylee has 3 dozen guppies in her aquarium. Jose has half as many guppies as Haylee in his tank. Charliz has one-third of what Jose has in his tank. Nicolai has 4 times as many guppies as Charliz in his pond. How many guppies do the four friends have altogether?
Haylee has 3 x 12 = 36 guppies. Jose has 36 / 2 = 18 guppies. Charliz has 18 / 3 = 6 guppies. Nicolai has 6 x 4 = 24 guppies. Altogether, the four friends have 36 + 18 + 6 + 24 = 84 guppies.
The answer is 84.

Answer this question:Nine hundred tickets were sold to a concert. Three-fourths of those who bought the ticket came before the start of the concert. Five-ninths of the remaining came few minutes after the first song. Eighty people arrived during the middle part of the concert while the rest did not go. How many of those who bought the tickets did not go?
900 x 3 / 4 = 675 people came before the start of the concert. 900 - 675 = 225 people did not come before the start of the concert. 225 x 5 / 9 = 125 people came few minutes after the first song. So, 125 + 80 = 205 people came to the concert that was not able to be at the start of the concert. Therefore, 225 - 205 = 20 people did not go to the concert.
The answer is 20.
