Q: Samuel has $5, $10, and $20 bills which amount to $150 in his wallet. His $10-bills amount to $50, and he has 4 $20-bills. How many bills does Samuel have in his wallet?
A: His $20 bills amount to 4 x $20 = $80. So the total amount of the $10 and $20 bills is $80 + $50 = $130. Hence, the remaining $5 bills amount to $150 - $130 = $20. This means that there are $20 / $5 = 4 $5 bills. There are also $50 / $10 = 5 $10 bills. Therefore, Samuel has 4 + 4 + 5 = 13 bills in his wallet. The answer is 13.
Question: 6 kids in Carolyn's daycare prefer peas, 9 prefer carrots, and 5 prefer corn. What percentage of the children prefer corn?
Answer: First find the total number of children: 6 kids + 9 kids + 5 kids = 20 kids. Then divide the number of kids who prefer corn by the total number of kids and multiply by 100% to express as a percentage: 5 kids / 20 kids * 100% = 25%. The answer is 25.
[Question]At Esme's school, there are 30 teachers and 45 staff members. On a Monday morning, The Best Pizza Inn brought pizza for the staff and teachers as a promotion offer. If 2/3 of the teachers and 4/5 of the staff members ate Pizza, how many non-pizza eaters are at Esme's school?
[Answer]The total number of teachers who ate pizza is 2 / 3 * 30 = 20. 30 - 20 = 10 teachers did not eat pizza. The number of staff members who ate pizza is 4 / 5 * 45 = 36. The number of staff members who did not eat pizza is 45 - 36 = 9. The number of non - pizza eaters is 9 + 10 = 19. The answer is 19.
Q: Bill and Ted went into the forest to gather some wild mushrooms. Bill gathered 12 red mushrooms and 6 brown mushrooms. Ted gathered 14 green mushrooms and 6 blue mushrooms. If half of the blue mushrooms, two-thirds of the red mushrooms, and all of the brown mushrooms have white spots, how many white-spotted mushrooms did they gather?
A: Of the 12 red mushrooms, 2 / 3 had spots, for a total of (2 / 3) * 12 = 8 white - spotted mushrooms. Of the 6 brown mushrooms, 100% had spots, for a total of (100 / 100) * 6 = 6 white - spotted mushrooms. Of the 14 green mushrooms, 0% had white spots, for a total of 14 * 0 = 0 white - spotted mushrooms. And of the 6 blue mushrooms, half had spots, for a total of (1 / 2) * 6 = 3 white - spotted mushrooms. In total, they gathered 8 + 6 + 0 + 3 = 17 white - spotted mushrooms. The answer is 17.
Question: Amy is collecting candy for the car pool. She has 5 chocolate bars, 7 times as many M&Ms as chocolate bars, and 6 times as many marshmallows as M&Ms. Amy then arranges the candies into baskets. If she fills each basket with 10 candies, how many baskets will Amy fill?
Answer: Amy has 5 * 7 = 35 M&Ms. Amy has 35 * 6 = 210 marshmallows. Amy has 5 + 35 + 210 = 250 candies. She fills 250 / 10 = 25 baskets. The answer is 25.
