Answer this question:John works 12 hours every other day. He gets a 30% raise from his former $20 an hour job. How much does he make in a 30 day month?
He works 30 / 2 = 15 days. So he works 15 * 12 = 180 hours in the month. He got a 20 * .3 = $6 an hour raise. So he gets paid 20 + 6 = $26 an hour. That means he makes 26 * 180 = $4680.
The answer is 4680.

Answer this question:Four adults with 32 teeth went to the dentist for a checkup after realizing they were having severe tooth pain. They were found to have different numbers of damaged teeth, and each person had some teeth removed. The first person had 1/4 of all his teeth removed, and the second person had 3/8 of his teeth removed, the third person had half of his teeth removed, while the last person only had 4 teeth removed. What's the total number of teeth removed at the dental clinic?
The first person had 1 / 4 of all his teeth removed, a total of 1 / 4 * 32 = 8 teeth. The second person had 3 / 8 of his teeth removed, meaning 3 / 8 * 32 = 12 of his teeth were removed. Together, the first and the second person had 12 + 8 = 20 teeth removed in total. The third person had half of his teeth removed, which were 1 / 2 * 32 = 16 teeth. The first three people had a total of 20 + 16 = 36 teeth removed from their mouth. The last person only had 4 teeth removed, bringing the total number of teeth removed at the dentist clinic to be 36 + 4 = 40 teeth.
The answer is 40.

Answer this question:Carolyn counts 6 monkeys and 6 birds in the tree outside her window. Then two of the monkeys each eat one bird. What percent of the animals outside her window are monkeys now?
First find the new number of birds: 6 birds - 2 birds = 4 birds. Then find the new total number of animals: 6 monkeys + 4 birds = 10 animals. Then divide the number of monkeys by the number of animals and multiply by 100% to express the answer as a percentage: 6 monkeys / 10 animals * 100% = 60%.
The answer is 60.

Answer this question:Samuel is arranging his grandma’s teacups. They are stored in boxes and inside the boxes, they are stacked 5 rows high with 4 cups in each row. Of the 26 boxes in her attic, 6 of the boxes contain pans, half of the remaining boxes contain decorations, and the rest of the boxes contain her teacups. Samuel breaks 2 of the cups every time he picks up one of the boxes. By the time Samuel has taken all of the teacups out of the boxes, how many teacups are left?
Taking the boxes of pans out of the total attic boxes shows that 26 boxes – 6 boxes of pans = 20 boxes are either decorations or teacups. Since half of these boxes are decorations, the other half must be made up of 20 boxes / 2 = 10 boxes of teacups. Each box of cups initially has 5 rows x 4 cups = 20 teacups inside. Samuel breaks cups each time he picks up a box, which means each box now contains 20 – 2 = 18 teacups. Therefore, there are 10 boxes * 18 teacups = 180 teacups left.
The answer is 180.
