Question: Zainab earns $2 an hour passing out flyers at the town square. She passes out flyers on Monday, Wednesday, and Saturday each week, for 4 hours at a time. After passing out flyers for 4 weeks, how much money will Zainab earn?
Answer: Every day Zainab passes out flyers, she earns $2 x 4 = $8. If she hands out flyers for 3 days, she'll earn $8 / day * 3 days = $24. If she passes out flyers for 4 weeks, she will earn $24 * 4 = $96. The answer is 96.
[Question]To eat to when she gets full, Michaela needs 20 oranges. Cassandra needs twice as many oranges as Michaela to eat until she gets full. If they picked 90 oranges from the farm today, how many oranges would remain after they've both eaten until they were full?
[Answer]Since Michaela needs 20 oranges to eat to her full, and Cassandra eats twice as much to have her full, Cassandra needs 2 * 20 = 40 oranges to eat. They eat 20 + 40 = 60 oranges together to have their fill. If they picked 90 oranges today, after eating 60 together, 90 - 60 = 30 oranges would remain. The answer is 30.
Q: Justin bought some jerseys. He bought four long-sleeved ones that cost $15 each, and some striped ones that cost $10 each. How many striped jerseys did Justin buy if he spent a total of $80?
A: Four long - sleeved jerseys cost $15 x 4 = $60. So the striped jerseys amount to $80 - $60 = $20. Hence, Justin bought $20 / $10 = 2 striped jerseys. The answer is 2.
Question: John has a donkey and an elephant. The elephant weighs 3 tons (a ton is 2000 pounds). The donkey weighs 90% less. What is their combined weight in pounds?
Answer: The elephant weighs 3 * 2000 = 6000 pounds. The donkey weighs 6000 * .9 = 5400 pounds less. So the donkey weighs 6000 - 5400 = 600 pounds. That means the combined weight is 600 + 6000 = 6600 pounds. The answer is 6600.
Q: In a 50-question test with two marks for each question, Meghan learned that she scored 20 marks less than her friend Jose, who scored 40 more marks than their friend Alisson. Calculate the total score for the three in the test combined if Jose got 5 questions wrong?
A:
If you answer every question correctly in the test, the total possible marks are 50 * 2 = 100 marks. If Jose got five questions wrong, he lost 5 * 2 = 10 marks because each question has two marks. Therefore, Jose scored 100 - 10 = 90 marks on the test. Meghan scored 20 marks less than that which Jose got, a total of 90 - 20 = 70 marks. The total marks that Jose and Meghan scored in the test are 70 + 90 = 160. Alisson scored 90 - 40 = 50 marks in the examination, 40 marks less than that which Jose scored on the test. The total number of marks that the three scored in the test is 160 + 50 = 210. The answer is 210.
