Answer this question:Marie, the confectioner, makes 12 chocolate eggs, each weighing 10 ounces. She then packs an equal number of the eggs in 4 different gift boxes. Unfortunately, she leaves one of the boxes by the kitchen window and the afternoon sun melts everything. She tosses that box out. What is the total weight, in ounces, of the remaining chocolate eggs?
Each gift box has 12 / 4 = 3 chocolate are 12 - 3 = 9 chocolate eggs left. The remaining chocolate eggs therefore weigh 9 * 10 = 90 ounces.

Answer this question:June's mom promises to pay her 1 cent for every cloverleaf she picks from the lawn. June picks 200 clovers in total. 75% have 3 petals. 24% have two petals and 1% have four petals. How many cents does June earn?
There are 150 clovers with 3 leaves because 200 times .75 equals 150. There are 48 clovers with 2 leaves because 200 times .24 equals 48. There are 2 clovers with 4 leaves because 200 times .01 equals 2. The four - leaf clovers are worth 450 cents because 150 times 3 equals 450. The two leafed clovers are worth 96 cents because 48 times two equals 96. The four - leaf clovers are worth 8 cents because 4 times 2 equals 8. The clovers are worth 554 cents because 450 plus 96 plus 8 equals 554.
The answer is 554.

Answer this question:Timmy's parents have a 2 car garage, which has both cars inside it. Also inside is a riding lawnmower, a bicycle for Timmy as well as each of his parents, a tricycle for Timmy's little brother Joey, and a unicycle that Timmy's dad practices riding on. How many wheels in total are in this garage?
Each car in the garage has 4 wheels, for a total of 4 * 2 = 8 wheels. The riding lawnmower has 4 wheels, bringing the total up to 8 + 4 = 12 wheels. The bicycles have 2 wheels each and there are 3 of them, for 3 * 2 = 6 wheels, bringing the total to 12 + 6 = 18. The tricycle has 3 wheels, and the unicycle has 1 wheel, bringing the total up to 18 + 1 + 3 = 22 wheels.
The answer is 22.
