Q: A show debut and 200 people buy tickets. For the second showing three times as many people show up. If each ticket cost $25 how much did the show make?
A: The second show sold 200 * 3 = 600 tickets. So there were a total of 200 + 600 = 800 tickets sold. That means they made 800 * 25 = $20,000. The answer is 20000.

Q: Grandma left $124,600 in her will. She gave half of it to her favorite grandchild, Shelby. The rest was to be evenly divided among the remaining 10 grandchildren. How many dollars did one of the remaining 10 grandchildren receive?
A: Shelby = (1 / 2) * 124600 = $62,300. Remaining 10 = 62,300 / 10 = $6230. Each of the remaining grandchildren would receive $6230. The answer is 6230.

Q: Going into the final game, Duke is so close to breaking the school's record for most points scored in a basketball season. He only needs 17 more points to tie the record. By the end of the game, Duke breaks the record by 5 points. The old record was 257 points. In the final game Duke made 5 free throws (worth one point), and 4 regular baskets (worth two points), and some three-pointers. Normally, he scores 2 three-pointers a game. How many more three-pointers did he score in the final game compared to his normal amount?
A:
Duke scored 22 points in the final game because 17 + 5 = 22. He scored 5 points of free - throws, because 5 x 1 = 5. He scored 8 points of regular baskets because 4 x 2 = 8. He made 9 points of three - pointers because 22 - 5 - 8 = 9. He scored 3 three - pointers in the final game because 9 / 3 = 3. Duke scored 1 more than normal because 3 - 2 = 1. The answer is 1.
