Q: Janet makes $20 per hour at work. She works 52 hours per week. Anything over 40 hours per week is considered overtime and is paid at 1.5 times the normal rate. She wants to purchase a $4640 car. How many weeks does she need to work to purchase the car?
A: Each week she makes $20 * 40 = $800 from her normal hours. For overtime she makes $20 * 1.5 = $30 per hour. Each week she works 52 - 40 = 12 overtime hours per week. She makes a total of 12 * $30 = $360 from overtime every week. This means she makes a total of $800 + $360 = $1160 per week. To reach $4640 she would need to work $4640 / $1160 = 4 weeks. The answer is 4.

Q: Paulo wants to get a burger meal that costs $6. Aside from that, he also wants to get a soda which costs 1/3 as much as the burger meal. While on the counter, Jeremy asked Paulo to get him 2 of each item Paulo is going to get. How much will they be charged for their orders combined?
A:
They are to order a total of 3 burger meals and 3 sodas for Paulo and Jeremy. The cost of a soda is $6 / 3 = $2. So, the 3 sodas will amount to $2 / soda x 3 sodas = $6. The 3 burger meals will amount to $6 / burger x 3 burgers = $18. Hence, the total cost for their orders is $6 + $18 = $24. The answer is 24.
