[Question]An internet provider gives a 5% discount if the customer pays before the 25th day of the month. If the monthly internet rate is $50, how much did the customer pay in all for 4 months if he paid every 25th of the month?
[Answer]The 5% discount amounts to $50 x 5 / 100 = $2.50. So the total discount given to the customer for 4 months was $2.50 x 4 = $10. The customer was supposed to pay $50 x 4 = $200 in all for 4 months without discount. Since the customer is entitled to the discount, then he only paid a total of $200 - $10 = $190 for 4 months. The answer is 190.
Q: A hardware store sold 10 graphics cards, 14 hard drives, 8 CPUs, and 4 pairs of RAM in one week. The graphics cards cost $600 each, hard drives cost $80 each, CPUs cost $200 each, and RAM cost $60 for each pair. How much money did the store earn this week?
A: It earned 10 * 600 = 6000 dollars by selling graphics cards. It earned 14 * 80 = 1120 dollars by selling hard drives. It earned 8 * 200 = 1600 dollars by selling CPUs. It earned 4 * 60 = 240 dollars by selling RAM. Overall it earned 6000 + 1120 + 1600 + 240 = 8960 dollars this week. The answer is 8960.

[Question]Jenny wants to read 3 books in the next 10 days. She can read 100 words per hour. If the first book has 200 words, the second book has 400 words, and the third book has 300 words, how many minutes per day, on average, should she spend reading?
[Answer]She wants to read 200 + 400 + 300 = 900 pages total. She needs to spend 900 / 100 = 9 hours reading in the next three weeks. In minutes, she will need to spend 9 * 60 = 540 minutes. Thus, she should spend 540 minutes / 10 days = 54 minutes per day reading. The answer is 54.

Question: Lyla, a grocery store owner, bought rice weighing 30 kg less than green beans, which weigh 10 kg more than sugar. While carrying the goods to the store, the bags fell down and 1/3 weight of the rice and 1/5 weight of sugar was lost. If the green beans weighed 60 kgs, then how much did the remaining stock weigh?
Answer:
If rice weighed 30 kg less than the green beans, then the total rice weight is 60 kg - 30 kg = 30 kg. If the green beans weighed 10 kg more than sugar, then the total sugar weight is 60 kg - 10 kg = 50 kg. When 1 / 3 weight of rice was lost, the weight loss became 1 / 3 * 30 = 10kg. The weight of rice after the loss is 30 kg - 10 kg = 20 kg. When 1 / 5 weight of sugar was lost, the lost weight was 1 / 5 * 50 kg = 10 kg. The weight of sugar after the loss is 50 kg - 10 kg = 40 kg. The total weight for all the items is 40 kg + 20 kg + 60 kg = 120 kg. The answer is 120.
