Q: Nadia was sent to the flower shop to buy 20 roses and 3/4 times as many Lillies as roses. If roses cost $5 each and lilies cost twice as much each, calculate the total amount of money Nadia used to buy the flowers.
A: The total cost for roses is 20 * 5 = $100. Nadia bought 3 / 4 * 20 = 15 lilies. Each lily costs 5 * 2 = $10. She used 10 * 15 = $150 in total to buy lilies. To buy all the flowers, Nadia used 150 + 100 = $250. The answer is 250.
Question: Sammy can eat 15 pickle slices. His twin sister Tammy can eat twice as much as Sammy. Their older brother Ron eats 20% fewer pickles slices than Tammy. How many pickle slices does Ron eat?
Answer: Tammy can eat twice as many pickle slices as Sammy who eats 15 so Tammy can eat 15 * 2 = 30 pickle slices. Ron eats 20% fewer pickle slices than Tammy who eats 30 pickle slices so that's .20 * 30 = 6 fewer slices than Tammy. Tammy eats 30 slices and Ron eats 6 less, then Ron eats 30 - 6 = 24 pickle slices. The answer is 24.
[Question]Jacob has half the number of shoes Edward has. Edward has 3 times the number of shoes Brian has. If Brian has 22 pairs of shoes, how many pairs of shoes do they have in total?
[Answer]Edward has 3 * 22 = 66 pairs of shoes. Jacob has 66 / 2 = 33 pairs of shoes. All of them have 22 + 66 + 33 = 121 pairs of shoes in total. The answer is 121.
Q: At Mario's barbershop haircuts are 50% more expensive during the weekends. If Mario paid $18 for his last haircut on Monday, how much he would have paid the day before?
A: Mario's $18 cut on Monday would have been 50% more expensive on Sunday or $18 * 50% = $9 more expensive. That means he would have paid $9 more on Sunday than what he paid ($18) on Monday or $9 + $18 = $27. The answer is 27.
Question: Jill and her brother Jack are going apple picking. Jill's basket can hold twice as much as Jack's basket when both are full. Jack's basket is full when it has 12 apples, but currently space for 4 more. How many times could Jack's current number of apples fit into Jill's basket?
Answer: Since Jill's basket can hold twice as much as Jack's, and Jack's is capable of holding 12 apples in total, this means Jill's basket can hold 12 * 2 = 24 apples in total. Since Jack has 4 less than the maximum amount of apples he can fit in his basket, this means Jack has 12 - 4 = 8 apples in his basket. Therefore, Jill's basket can hold 24 / 8 = 3 times the amount of apples Jack is currently carrying. The answer is 3.
Q: The Arevalo family went out to dinner. The smoky salmon costs $40, the black burger costs $15, and the chicken katsu costs $25. If the bill includes a 10% service charge and 5% tip, how much change will Mr. Arevalo receive from his $100?
A:
The total amount spent on food is $40 + $15 + $25 = $80. The service charge is $80 x 10 / 100 = $8. The tip is $80 x 5 / 100 = $4. So, Mr. Arevalo had to pay $80 + $8 + $4 = $92 in all. Therefore, his change will only be $100 - $92 = $8. The answer is 8.
