A quarterback steps back to throw 80 times in a game. 30 percent of the time he does not get a pass thrown. Half of the times that he does not throw the ball he is sacked for a loss. How many times is the quarterback sacked for a loss in the game?
Let's think: No pass thrown:80(.30) = 24. Sacked:24 / 2 = 12.. The answer is: 12.

Oliver has two bags of vegetables. Each bag weighs 1/6 as much as James’s bag, which weighs 18kg. What is the combined weight of both Oliver’s bags?

Sonia and Joss are moving to their new house at the lake. They have too much stuff in their previous house and decide to make multiple trips to move it all to the new house. They spend 15 minutes filling the car with their stuff and spend 30 minutes driving from the previous house to the new house. Fortunately, they did not waste any time unloading their stuff into the new house. In total they make 6 trips to complete the move. How many hours did they spend moving?
Let's think: They spend 15 minutes / trip + 30 minutes / trip = 45 minutes / trip filling the car and driving to the new house. They had to take 6 trips, so they spend 45 minutes / trip x 6 / trip = 270 minutes. They also had to drive back to their previous house 5 times to complete the move: 30 minutes / trip x 5 trips = 150 minutes. In total, they spent 270 minutes + 150 minutes = 420 minutes. Each hour has 60 minutes so they spent 420 minutes ÷ 60 minutes / hour = 7 hours in total.. The answer is: 7.

John receives $100 from his uncle and gives his sister Jenna 1/4 of that money. He goes and buys groceries worth $40. How much money does John have remaining?
Let's think:
When John gives his sister 1 / 4 of his money, he parts with 1 / 4 * 100 = 25 dollars. Johns remains with 100 - 25 = 75 dollars. When he buys groceries worth $40, he remains with 75 - 40 = 35 dollars.. The answer is: 35.
