Nina has received a scholarship worth $8000 less than Kelly's amount. Kelly received a scholarship worth twice the amount Wendy received. How much money did they receive in scholarship together if Wendy received a scholarship worth $20000?
Let's think: If Wendy received a scholarship worth $20000, Kelly, who received twice as much, received 2 * $20000 = $40000. Together, Wendy and Kelly received Scholarship worth $40000 + $20000 = $60000. Nina received a scholarship worth $8000 less than Kelly's amount, a total of $40000 - $8000 = $32000. Together, the three received scholarship worth $32000 + $60000 = $92000.. The answer is: 92000.

Jackson's oldest son gets 4 cookies after school and his youngest son gets 2 cookies after school. If there are 54 cookies in a box, how many days will the box last?
Let's think: The oldest son gets 4 cookies and the youngest gets 2, so every day they eat 4 + 2 = 6 cookies. There are 54 cookies in a box and the boys eat 6 cookies a day, so the box will last 54 / 6 = 9 days.. The answer is: 9.

Sally Draper gave her dad Don Draper 10oz of rum on his pancakes. Don can consume a maximum of 3 times that amount of rum for a healthy diet. If he already had 12oz of rum earlier that day, how many oz of rum can Don have after eating all of the rum and pancakes?
Let's think: 3 times the initial amount of 10 oz is 3 * 10 = 30 oz. He has consumed 10 + 12 = 22 oz of rum. He can still consume 30 - 22 = 8 oz of rum.. The answer is: 8.

Melanie is making meatballs for dinner. The recipe calls for breadcrumbs. To make the breadcrumbs Melanie is going to tear 2 slices of bread into smaller pieces and then add them to a blender to grind them into fine crumbs. First she tears the bread slices each in half, then tears those halves in half. How many bread pieces is Melanie going to put into the blender?
Let's think:
Melanie starts with 1 slice of bread that she tears in half, making 2 halves. She takes both of those halves and tears them each in half, 2 halves x 2 more halves in half = 4 pieces per slice of bread. Melanie is using 2 slices of bread x 4 pieces each = 8 pieces overall to add to the blender.. The answer is: 8.
