[Question]At a flea market, Hillary sells handmade crafts for 12 dollars per craft. Today, Hillary sells 3 crafts and is given an extra 7 dollars from an appreciative customer. Later on, Hillary deposits 18 dollars from today's profits into her bank account. How many dollars is Hillary left with after making the deposit?
[Answer]Hillary sells 3 crafts for 12 dollars each, for a total of 3 crafts * $12 / craft = $36. She receives an extra 7 dollars from a customer, increasing the total to $36 + $7 = $43. She then deposits 18 dollars in the bank, leaving her with $43 - $18 = $25. The answer is 25.
Q: Joe sells ham and cheese sandwiches for $1.50. If a slice of bread costs $0.15, a slice of ham costs $0.25 and a slice of cheese costs $0.35, how many cents does a sandwich with one slice of each protein cost Joe to make?
A: First find the cost of two slices of bread: $0.15 / slice * 2 slices = $0.30. Then add the cost of one slice each of ham and cheese: $0.30 + $0.25 + $0.35 = $0.90. The answer is 90.
Question: An entrepreneur is crowdfunding a new business effort. He has three different dollar amount levels of financial backing options and each level is ten times as high as the previous one. He needs to raise $12000 to get his business off the ground. He succeeded after getting two backers at the highest level of financial backing, three at the second level, and ten at the lowest level. How many dollars was the highest level of financial backing?
Answer: Let L represent the lowest level of financial backing. Thus, the second level is 10L and the highest level is 10 * 10L = 100L. The entrepreneur got 2 highest level backers, 3 second level backers, and 10 lowest level backers, so 2 * 100L + 3 * 10L + 10L = 200L + 30L + 10L = 240L = $12000. Therefore, the lowest level of financial backing was L = 12000 / 240 = $50. Thus, the highest level of financial backing was 10 * 10 * 50 = $5000. The answer is 5000.

Question: Ariella has $200 more in her son's saving account than Daniella has in her son's savings account. Ariella's account earns her simple interest at the rate of 10% per annum. If Daniella has $400, how much money will Arialla have after two years?
Answer:
If Ariella has $200 more in her son's saving account than Daniella has, then she has $400 + $200 = $600. If she earns an interest of 10% in the first year, her savings account increases by 10 / 100 * $600 = $60. In the second year, she earns the same amount of interest, which $60 + $60 = $120. The total amount of money in Ariella's account after two years is $600 + $120 = $720. The answer is 720.
