Q: Oliver has $40 and 200 quarters. If he gives his sister $5 and 120 quarters, how much money in total is he left with?
A: The 200 quarters equals 200 * $0.25 = $50. Oliver has a total of $40 + $50 = $90. He gives his sister 120 * $0.25 = $30 in total from the quarters. The total amount he gave to his sister is $30 + $5 = $35. Oliver is left with $90 - $35 = $55. The answer is 55.
Question: Jay went to watch a singer in a one hour 20 minutes concert. If there was a 10-minute intermission, and all the songs were 5 minutes except for one song that lasted 10 minutes, how many songs did she sing?
Answer: The time the singer had for singing was 80 - 10 = 70 minutes. The time the singer had for singing 5 - minute songs was 70 - 10 = 60 minutes. The number of 5 - minute songs was 60 / 5 = 12 songs. The total number of songs sung is 12 + 1 = 13 songs. The answer is 13.
[Question]Mr. Willson worked on making his furniture for 3/4 an hour on Monday. On Tuesday, he worked for half an hour. Then he worked for 2/3 an hour on Wednesday and 5/6 of an hour on Thursday. If he worked for 75 minutes on Friday, how many hours in all did he work from Monday to Friday?
[Answer]Since there are 60 minutes in an hour, then Mr. Willson worked for 60 minutes x 3 / 4 = 45 minutes on Monday. He worked for 60 minutes / 2 = 30 minutes on Tuesday. He worked for 60 minutes x 2 / 3 = 40 minutes on Wednesday. He worked for 60 minutes x 5 / 6 = 50 minutes on Thursday. So Mr. Willson worked for 45 + 30 + 40 + 50 + 75 = 240 minutes. In hours, it is equal to 240 / 60 = 4 hours. The answer is 4.
