[Question]In a single day, it rained for many hours. From 2pm to 4pm, it rained at a rate of 4 inches per hour. From 4pm to 7pm, it rained at a rate of 3 inches per hour. And from 7pm to 9pm, it rained at a rate of 0.5 inches per hour. If the rain gauge started out the day already containing 2 inches of rainwater, how many inches of water will the gauge contain at 9pm?
[Answer]From 2pm to 4pm is 4 - 2 = 2 hours. Thus, from 2 - 4pm, raining at 4 inches per hour, it added 8 inches to the rain gauge. From 4pm to 7pm is 7 - 4 = 3 hours. Thus, from 4 - 7pm, raining at a rate of 3 inches per hour, it added 3 * 3 = 9 inches to the rain gauge. From 7pm to 9pm is 9 - 7 = 2 hours. Thus, from 7 - 9pm, raining at a rate of 0.5 inches per hour, it added 2 * 0.5 = 1 inch to the gauge. If the gauge originally contained 2 inches of water, by 9pm the gauge contained 2 + 8 + 9 + 1 = 20 inches of water. The answer is 20.
Q: Ryan works in an office that has an even number of men and women working there. Ryan participates in a meeting composed of 4 men and 6 women who are pulled from the office floor.  This reduces the number of women working on the office floor by 20%. How many people work at Ryan's office?
A: Since 6 women are 20% of the total number of women working there, that means there are 6 * 5 = 30 women working there in total. Since there are an even number of women and men working in the office, that means there are 30 * 2 = 60 people working there in total, since there are 2 sexes. The answer is 60.
Question: Coby went on a road trip. He is traveling from Washington to Nevada but he needs to stop in Idaho which is 640 miles away from Washington and 550 miles away from Nevada to pick up some friends. If Coby is traveling at a speed of 80 miles per hour going to Idaho and at a speed of 50 miles per hour from Idaho to Nevada, how many hours did it take for him to arrive at the destination?
Answer: The estimated time of arrival from Washington to Idaho is 640 / 80 = 8 hours. So, the estimated time of arrival from Idaho to Nevada is 550 / 50 = 11 hours. Therefore, It took him 11 + 8 = 19 hours to arrive at the destination. The answer is 19.
[Question]Alice needs to sell $1000 of shoes to meet her quota. Adidas cost $45, Nike cost $60, and Reeboks cost $35. If she sells 8 Nikes, 6 Adidas's, and 9 Reeboks, how much is she short or above her goal?
[Answer]The total dollar amount of Nike's sold is 8 * $60 = $480. The total dollar amount of Adidas's sold is 6 * $45 = $270. The total dollar amount of Reebok's sold is 9 * $35 = $315. The total dollar amount that Alice sold was $480 + $270 + $315 = $1065. Therefore, she sold above her goal by $1065 - $1000 = $65. The answer is 65.
[Question]Trish likes to go for walks every day. One day, she goes on a 1-mile walk. Every subsequent day, she doubles the distance she walked the previous day. On what day does she walk more than 10 times further than she did on the first day?
[Answer]
Trish walks 1 mile on the first day, and since she walks double the previous day's amount each day that means she walks 1 * 2 = 2 miles the second day. On the following day, she walks double the distance of the previous day's total of 2 miles, meaning she walks 2 * 2 = 4 miles that day. On the following day, she walks double the distance of the previous day's total of 4 miles, meaning she walks 4 * 2 = 8 miles that day. On the following day, she walks double the distance of the previous day's total of 8 miles, meaning she walks 8 * 2 = 16 miles that day. As we're looking for the first day that her distance exceeds 10 times her original total, that means we're seeking a mile total of greater than or equal to 10 * 1 = 10 miles,. Since she accomplished this on the 5th day of walking, the answer is 5. The answer is 5.
