Q: Duke was at a garage sale when he spotted DVDs on sale. They were separated by price into 2 different boxes. In the first box, he found 10 movies that he wanted. These were $2.00 apiece. The second box was marked $5 each and he found 5 movies he wanted. What was the average price of each of the DVDs he bought?
A: In the first box he bought 10 DVDs at $2.00 each, so he paid 10 * 2 = $20.00. In the second box he bought 5 DVDs at $5.00 each, so he paid 5 * 5 = $25.00. He bought 10 + 5 = 15 DVDs. He spent $20 + $25 = $45.00. The average price of each DVD is $45 / 15 = $3.00 each. The answer is 3.
Question: Kathleen saved $21 in June, $46 in July, and $45 in August. Then Kathleen spent $12 on school supplies and $54 on new clothes. Kathleen’s aunt said she would give Kathleen $25 if Kathleen saves more than $125. How much money does Kathleen have left?
Answer: Kathleen saved $21 + $46 + $45 = $112. Kathleen’s aunt did not give Kathleen any money because $112 is not greater than $125. Kathleen spent $12 + $54 = $66. Kathleen has $112 - $66 = $46 remaining. The answer is 46.
[Question]Rebecca bought 22 items for her camping trip, including tent stakes, packets of drink mix, and bottles of water. She bought 3 times as many packets of drink mix as tent stakes. She also bought 2 more bottles of water than she did tent stakes. How many tent stakes did she buy?
[Answer]Let x represent the number of tent stakes. Drink Mix: 3x. Bottles of Water: x + 2. Total: x + 3x + x + 2 = 22. 5x + 2 = 22. 5x = 20. x = 4 tent stakes. The answer is 4.
Q: Marie has 4 notebooks with 20 stamps each. She also has two binders with 50 stamps each. If she decides to only keep 1/4 of the stamps, how many stamps can she give away?
A: Marie has 4 x 20 = 80 stamps from her notebooks. And she has 2 x 50 = 100 stamps from her binders. So she has a total of 80 + 100 = 180 stamps. Marie decided to keep 180 x 1 / 4 = 45 stamps only. Therefore, she can give away 180 - 45 = 135 stamps. The answer is 135.
Question: A boy runs 1.5 km in 45 minutes. What is his speed in kilometers per hour?
Answer:
Since 1 hour is equal to 60 minutes, then 45 minutes is equal to 45 / 60 = 0.75 hours. Then, the speed in kilometers per hour is 1.5 km / 0.75 hour = 2 kilometers per hour. The answer is 2.
