A: Leila has 50 x 2 = 100 viewers per day. So, she earns 100 x $0.50 = $50 per day. Therefore, Leila earns $50 x 7 = $350 every week. The answer is 350.
Question: A book is 98 pages long. Half of the pages are filled with images, and 11 with an introduction. Of the remaining pages, half are blank and the other half are filled with text. How many pages with text are there?
Answer: Half of the pages are images, which means 98 * 0.5 = 49 pages. So there are 98 - 49 - 11 pages for the introduction = 38 remaining pages. Half of the remaining pages are filled with text, which means 38 * 0.5 = 19 pages. The answer is 19.
[Question]Opal won $100.00 betting on a horse race. She put half of her winnings into savings and bet the other half of her winnings. This time, she made a 60% profit and again, put half of her earnings into savings. How much did she put into her savings?
[Answer]She won $100.00 and put half into savings so she put 100 / 2 = $50.00 into savings. She won $100.00 and put $50.00 into savings so that leaves 100 - 50 = $50.00 to bet. She bet $50.00 and made a 60% profit so her profit was 50 * .60 = $30.00. The total wins in the second bet are 30 + 50 = $80. She put half of her $80.00 earnings into savings so that's 80 / 2 = $40.00 into savings. She put $50.00 into saving from her 1st bet and $40.00 from her second so she has saved 50 + 40 = $90.00. The answer is 90.
Q: 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?
A: 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.
