Q: Porter earns $8 per day and works 5 times a week. His manager is asking him to work an extra day that promises him an extra fifty percent on top of his daily rate. How much money will he earn after a month if he renders overtime every week?
A: Porter's weekly earning is $8x5 = $40. Porter's monthly earning is $40x4 = $160. The extra amount he will earn when he works on his overtime is $8 x 50 / 100 = $4. So the amount he will earn on his overtime is $8 + $4 = $12. Since he will render overtime once every week, the total overtime pay he will earn in a month is $12 x 4 = $48. Therefore the total money he will earn in a week is $160 + $48 = $208. The answer is 208.
Question: At a James Bond movie party, each guest is either male (M) or female (F. 40% of the guests are women, 80% of the women are wearing rabbit ears, and 60% of the males are wearing rabbit ears. If the total number of guests at the party is 200, given all this information, what is the total number of people wearing rabbit ears?
Answer: If 40% of the guests are females, then there are 40 / 100 * 200 = 80 female guests at the party. The number of female guests wearing rabbit ears is 80 / 100 * 80 = 64. The number of male guests is 200 guests - 80 female guests = 120. If 60% of the male guests are wearing rabbit ears, then there are 60 / 100 * 120 = 72 male guests wearing rabbit ears. The total number of guests wearing rabbit ears is 64 + 72 = 136. The answer is 136.
[Question]Cersei bought 50 cotton candies. She gave her brother and sister 5 cotton candies each, then gave the remaining one-fourth of them to her cousin. If she ate 12 cotton candies, how many cotton candies are left?
[Answer]Cersei gave a total of 5 x 2 = 10 cotton candies to her brother and sister. So, the total cotton candies left were 50 - 10 = 40. And she gave 1 / 4 x 40 = 10 cotton candies to her cousin. So, the total number of cotton candies left was 40 - 10 = 30. Therefore, the total number of cotton candies left after she ate 12 of them is 30 - 12 = 18. The answer is 18.

A: On the second day, Penn made $10 + $4 = $14. On the 3rd day, she made $14 + $4 = $18. On the 4th day , she made $18 + $4 = $22. On the 5th day, she made $22 + $4 = $26. After 5 days, Penn made a total of $10 + $14 + $18 + $22 + $26 = $90. The answer is 90.
Question: John starts a TV show. He pays $1000 per episode for the first half of the season. The second half of the season had episodes that cost 120% more expensive. If there are 22 episodes how much did the entire season cost?
Answer:
The season is broken up into 22 / 2 = 11 episode based on cost. The first 11 episodes cost 11 * 1000 = $11,000. The next set of episodes cost 1000 * 1.2 = $1200 more per episode. So they cost 1000 + 1200 = $2200 each. So in total they cost 2200 * 11 = $24200. So in total the season cost 24200 + 11000 = $35,200. The answer is 35200.
