[Question]Cindy tosses 5 dimes into the wishing pond. Eric flips 3 quarters into the pond. Garrick throws in 8 nickels. Ivy then drops 60 pennies in. If Eric dips his hands into the water and pulls out a quarter, how much money, in cents, did they put into the pond?
[Answer]Cindy puts in 10 cents x 5 = 50 cents. Eric puts in 3 x 25 cents = 75 cents. Garrick puts in 8 x 5 cents = 40 cents. Ivy puts in 60 x 1 cent = 60 cents. After Eric pulls out a quarter, he has still left in the pond, 75 - 25 = 50 cents. Together, they put into the pond, this amount of money, 50 + 50 + 40 + 60 = 200 cents. The answer is 200.

[Question]Basil gets 1/2 of a dog cookie in the morning and before bed. She gets 2 whole cookies during the day. Basil’s cookies are packaged with 45 cookies per box. How many boxes will she need to last her for 30 days?
[Answer]Basil gets 1 / 2 in the morning and 1 / 2 at bedtime so she gets 1 / 2 + 1 / 2 = 1 whole cookie. Basil also gets 2 whole cookies during the day so all total she gets 2 + 1 = 3 whole cookies. She needs cookies for 30 days and eats 3 a day so she needs 30 * 3 = 90 cookies. Her cookies come 45 per box and she needs 90 cookies so she needs 90 / 45 = 2 boxes of cookies. The answer is 2.
