Question: Gary manages two Amazon distribution centers. The first center processes 10000 packages per day, and the second center processes three times that volume. If Amazon makes 5 cents of profit per package, how much profit per week do the two centers make combined?
Answer: First find how many packages the second center processes per day: 10000 packages / day * 3 = 30000 packages / day. Then add the packages the first center processes: 30000 packages / day + 10000 packages / day = 40000 packages / day. Then multiply the number of packages by Amazon's profit per package to find Amazon's daily profit: 40000 packages / day * $0.05 / package = $2000 / day. Then multiply the daily profits by the number of days in a week to find the weekly profits: $2000 / day * 7 days / week = $14000 / week. The answer is 14000.
[Question]Ruby is taking dance lessons. They cost $75 for 10 classes in one pack. She can add additional classes at the price of 1/3 more than the average price of a class on the lesson in the pack. if she takes 13 total classes, how much does she pay?
[Answer]The classes in the pack cost $7.5 each because 75 / 10 = 7.5. An additional class costs $10 because 7.5 x (1 + (1 / 3)) = 10. She buys 3 extra classes because 13 - 10 = 3. Her three additional classes cost $30 because 3 x 10 = 30. Her total cost is $105 because 75 + 30 = 105. The answer is 105.

Question: Jimmy and Tonya both like collecting matchbooks and stamps. Tonya and Jimmy decide to trade some stamps and matchbooks. They have each decided that one stamp is worth 12 matches. Each matchbook contains 24 matches. If Tonya arrives with 13 stamps, Jimmy has 5 matchbooks, and Jimmy trades all his matchbooks for stamps, how many stamps does Tonya have left?
Answer:
Jimmy has 120 matches because 5 times 24 equals 120. Jimmy trades this for 10 stamps because 120 divided by 12 equals 10. Tonya has 3 stamps left because 13 minus 10 equals 3. The answer is 3.
