Q: We harvested 405 kg of apples. 90 kg were used to make fruit juice and 60 kg were given to a restaurant. The rest was sold in 5 kg bags and their sale brought in $408. What was the selling price of one bag of apples?
A: The weight of apples used for juice and given to the restaurant is 60 + 90 = 150 kg. Thus 405 – 150 = 255kg worth of apples were sold in 5 kg bags. There were 255 / 5 = 51 bags sold. So each bag was sold for 408 / 51 = $8. The answer is 8.
Question: Mr Cruz went to his doctor to seek advice on the best way to gain weight. His doctor told him to include more proteins in his meals and live a generally healthy lifestyle. After a month of following his doctor's advice, Mr Cruz had a weight gain of 20 pounds. He gained 30 more pounds in the second month after more healthy eating habits. If he originally weighed 70 pounds, what's his weight after the two months?
Answer: Mr Cruz's total weight gain in the two months is 20 + 30 = 50 pounds. If he initially weighed 70 pounds, his total weight after the two months is 70 + 50 = 120 pounds. The answer is 120.
[Question]Jame's buys 100 head of cattle for $40,000. It cost 20% more than that to feed them. They each weigh 1000 pounds and sell for $2 per pound. How much profit did he make?
[Answer]It cost .2 * 40000 = $8000 more to feed than buy them. So the total cost to feed them was 40000 + 8000 = $48,000. So in total it cost 48000 + 40000 = $88,000. Each cow sells for 2 * 1000 = $2000. So he sells them for 2000 * 100 = $200,000. So he makes a profit of 200,000 - 88,000 = $112,000. The answer is 112000.
Q: Cathy has $12 left in her wallet. Her dad sent her $25 for her weekly consumption while her mom sent her twice the amount her dad sent her. How much money does Cathy have now?

Question: A bar of chocolate is made up of 60 pieces. If Michael takes half of the bar, Paige takes half of the remainder, and Mandy is left with what’s left of the chocolate bar, how many pieces of chocolate will Mandy get?
Answer: Michael takes half which is 60 pieces / 2 = 30 pieces. Paige then takes half of this which gives her 30 pieces / 2 = 15 pieces. Mandy is therefore left with 60 pieces – 30 pieces – 15 pieces = 15 pieces. The answer is 15.
Q: Ayen jogs for 30 minutes every day during weekdays. This week on Tuesday, she jogged 5 minutes more and also jogged 25 minutes more on Friday. How many hours, in total, did Ayen jog this week?
A:
Ayen jogged for a total of 30 x 3 = 90 minutes on Monday, Wednesday, and Thursday. She jogged for 30 + 5 = 35 minutes on Tuesday. She also jogged for 30 + 25 = 55 minutes on Friday. So, Ayen jogged for a total of 90 + 35 + 55 = 180 minutes. In hours, this is equal to 180 minutes / 60 minutes / hour = 3 hours. The answer is 3.
