Q: The total average age of three friends is 40. Jared is ten years older than Hakimi, and Molly's age is 30. How old is Hakimi?
A: The total age for the three friends is 40 * 3 = 120. If Molly's age is 30, then Jared and Hakimi have a total age of 120 - 30 = 90. Let's say the age of Hakimi is x. Since Jared is 10 years older than Hakimi, Jared is x + 10 years old. Jared and Hakimi's total age is x + (x + 10) = 90. This translates to 2x = 90 - 10. 2x = 80. Hakimi's age is x = 80 / 2. This gives us x = 40, which is Hamkimi's age. The answer is 40.
Question: Jon's laundry machine can do 5 pounds of laundry at a time. 4 shirts weigh 1 pound and 2 pairs of pants weigh 1 pound. If he needs to wash 20 shirts and 20 pants, how many loads of laundry does he have to do?
Answer: The shirts weigh 20 / 4 = 5 pounds. The pants weigh 20 / 2 = 10 pounds. So he needs to do 10 + 5 = 15 pounds of laundry. So that would take 15 / 5 = 3 loads of laundry. The answer is 3.
[Question]Tina buys a loaf of bread for $50, 2oz of ham for $150, and a cake for $200. What percent of the cost is the ham and bread?
[Answer]The total cost of buying bread and ham was $50 + $150 = $200. Together with the cake, Tina paid $200 + $200 = $400 for the items. Since the total percentage for all the items is 100%, the cost of ham and bread is $200 / $400 * 100% = 50% of the total cost of items. The answer is 50.
