Question: Dorothy is 15 years old and wants to go to a museum with her family. Her family consists of her, her younger brother, her parents, and her grandfather. The regular ticket cost is $10. People 18 years old or younger have a discount of 30%. How much money will Dorothy have after this trip, when she currently has $70?
Answer: The discount per one ticket is 10 * 30 / 100 = $3. So Dorothy's and her brother's tickets are cheaper by 2 * 3 = $6. Her family consists of 5 people, so the ticket cost stands at 5 * 10 = $50. Including the discount will lower the price to 50 - 6 = $44 in total. Dorothy will be left with 70 - 44 = $26. The answer is 26.

Q: There is three less than four times the number of students in Elementary School as there are in Middle School. If the number of students in Middle school is 50, calculate the total number of students in both levels.
A: The number of students in elementary school is three less than four times the number in middle school: 4 * 50 students = 200 students.

Question: Walter wants to serve hushpuppies to his guests for his annual fish fry event. He thinks each guest will eat 5 hushpuppies and he is having 20 guests. He can cook 10 hushpuppies in 8 minutes. How long will it take to cook all of the hushpuppies?
Answer: He wants to serve 5 hushpuppies to each guest and he is having 20 guests so that's 5 * 20 = 100 hush puppies. He can only cook 10 hushpuppies at a time and he needs to cook 100 hushpuppies so that's 100 / 10 = 10 batches of hushpuppies. Each batch takes 8 minutes to cook and he has 10 batches to cook so it will take him 8 * 10 = 80 minutes. The answer is 80.
